I don’t have an Aristocrat, but that Treet razor is top notch!

Great film my friend! I wish I had shops like that near me but sadly I don’t have any

Great find. Hopefully you can get that one fixed and re-plated.

Hey Chris! Great finds on those razors! For the prices you paid, you got an excellent deal! I just found the WWI Property of US Army razor! Those go for a ton on eBay! I paid just $20! And like your razor, they left an original blade in the head. It was all corroded, but I was able to clean it up well! They also had a TV Superspeed, a really nice Autostrop in it's original case, and one of those Star lather catchers from the very early 1900s. The seller wanted $50 for it. I am on the fence with that one! They also had one of those Turk electric safety razors still in the box. I don't know if I would trust that, though. They also had a Gillette Slim Adjustable. They wanted $25 for that. I have too many of them,😅😅! That Aristocrat offers a very good shave!! I have 6 of them, both model years. Three are in new old stock conditions. I believe you can purchase those side caps from Razor Emporium, or if you send it in for a tune-up, they will place them on for you. I am looking forward to your shave with the Aristocrat! Have a great week! JimG

@JimG7755 Nice score Jim, I saw that one on eBay. Glad you won it. I too have too many Slim adjustables .

@@CDinVT I didn't get it from eBay, I found it at that antique store! On ebay they go for ridiculous pricing! I couldn't believe it when I saw that! It cleaned up rather well! I will shave with it soon! I do have a WWI travel case I'll put it in!

@@JimG7755 I saw one last week that sold for 20 bucks on eBay full set, I was dumb not to bid on it I thought you were the one that got it

Are you sure that's not a Regent Tech? Is there any stampings on the head?

[@CDinVT]

@fredlampher8154 it's has patent on package stamped on top of base plate

Very nice find I think you're up the wrong date 8/24/2024 That's my birthday date😅

[@CDinVT]

Thanks, I fixed it. Early happy birthday! Did you end up cleaning up those razors you showed me?

[@alexpadillayt]

@@CDinVT no I need to do that 😆. I will just clean them up hopefully was just soap and a toothbrush used that I don't use anymore. And probably some scrubbing bubbles and then I will probably send you pictures again through email to see what else to clean. But yeah I need to get cleaning those razors . Also thanks man for birthday wishes
