    That's a lovely looking razor. I like the long slim handle. Never considered Parkers before .... ah no hide the credit card ....


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    I bought it for the handle, to be honest. Looks to be a normal 'Gillette thread bolt', most 3 pieces are interchangeable, from the point of view of the handle.

    I like that there's no logo or other quirks. My Mühle razor head will be on top of it sometime soon..

    Amalgam got the payment for the Parker today and thanks a million for the black Gillete's :)

    Hopefully you've received the Parker by now

    You should have it tomorrow I'd imagine if there's post tomorrow (is there?)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    Cabaal, razor arrived. Cheers. The thread is a Gillette thread, meaning, more or less any 3 piece head can fit on the handle.. and vice versa.

    I have the Mühle on it at the moment.

    Is that the long or regular handle?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 Smart Guy


    Its the short handle


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,478 ✭✭✭padi89


    Selling my Merkur Progress (Regular Handle) as i have picked up another razor that suits me more. Just over a month old so it's in perfect condition and clean as a whistle.Perfect razor for new and experienced wet shavers and recommended in Mantic59s videos. I will throw in a pack of blades and some shaving samples from Trumpers.

    Looking for 32 euro delivered. I have plenty of feedback on adverts.

    Hi Amalgam, I would love to try these blades. I'm just starting to gather stuff to try shaving for the first time in over 10yrs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    sedohre, great, PM me with a postal address of some sort and they'll go out first thing tomorrow.

    Everyone is different, they might work better for you.


  • Registered Users Posts: 669 ✭✭✭sedohre


    Hi, I new to shaving, and want to give it a whirl. The last time I shaved was over 10yrs ago, (I've used a beard trimmer ever since)

    Are there people out there who are willing to send me their old razors, blades they have moved on from and soaps, anything that they want to get rid of (related to shaving of course). I'd appreciate it. I would give me some idea as to what suited me and that I'd need to buy in the future.

    Here's hoping

    Thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    If any of ye have one of them 3 piece razors like the one that was posted here for sale or whatever, could you let me know please. :)

    SWAP

    Monsavon -> 15 Gillette Super Thin

    amalgamgsuperthin.gif

    -or-

    Monsavon -> 15 Gillette 7 O'Clock (Green) Super Stainless

    amalgamg7oclockss.jpg

    ---

    I'd like the blades to be in retail packaging, not loose.

    Straight swap.

    I'll cover P&P etc, at my end. You cover the P&P for the blades.

    If you have any other branded Gillette blades, except the following:

    Gillette 7 O'Clock Super Platinum 'Black' (India)

    Gillete 7 O'Clock Sharp Edge 'Yellow' (Russia)

    I'd happily accept them too. Cheers.

    Apologies for anyone abroad, for the sake of P&P, I'd like to keep the transaction within Ireland.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,026 ✭✭✭Amalgam


    Withdrawing the above exchange, just.. used a tub for the first time in a while, too nice to give away. I'd rather have the shaving cream, instead of the blades.

    Another DE Razor

    Didn't get on with my progress so i decided to go vintage. Bought a Gillette Flair tip and a Red Tip as i wasn't sure which would suit me. The Red is perfect for me so I am letting the Flair go. It's a slightly milder shave than the Red but still as incredibly smooth. The build quality of these razors are incredible and will last a life time. The condition is near mint, it literally looks like a brand new razor.
    €20 that includes postage.The date code is C-4 / 1957



    If anyone is interested and needs pics, just ask. I have loads of feedback on adverts.
