Thread: favorite vintage safety razor?

hi , what is everyones favorite safety razor?

My favorite safety razor is the Gem 1912 SE. Just about as close as you can get to shaving with a straight IMO.

My 1949 Gillette SuperSpeed is at the top of my DE list.

My 1958 fatboy is a great lil shaver

Same here, although that may change. I recently purchased a Vintage Gillette Fatboy Adjustable on ebay.

Before I switched to a str8 my favorite DE was a 1930's Gillette New Open Comb.

Fat boys are the gold standard for DEs

Favorite would have to be my Gillette model '04 J. WW1 razor, beautiful condition. Very nice , clean shave in 2 passes.

My 1974 Gillette Super Adjustable!
