Red Tip is Just Unreal

I have a Delta Echo 1956 Red Tip that I keep in rotation. It's an awesome razor.

Me too! A great razor that really deserves the delta echo treatment.

Mine isn't a looker at all, but it has stayed with me for a reason.

This is a razor that keeps me puzzled. I saw this thread last night and decided to pull out my Red Tip for today's shave. Its always a SUPER SMOOTH shave. Very few razors feel as good while gliding over my skin; but, my post shave always feels slightly irritated. It's like the Red Tip is sneaky aggressive.

I have gotten a decent collection of Gillette razors in the last little bit and so far my red tip is getting the most love. My new long comb is giving it a run for its money but I can't see my self ever letting the red tip go. With a polsilver it gives me great shaves two passes plus touch up.

Those are my favorites also - throw in the Fatboy. They were ingenious in their design. I would imagine that a non-adjustable razor will not work for some, but those two seem to have found the sweet middle ground. Enjoy yourself.

I've got a Red Tip en route, this thread has me excited! Was actually just a throw-in for an Aristocrat I was interested in, but maybe there's something to the RT too.

Aristocrat is nice too, but there is something about the Red Tip. Enjoy!!

How much does an average red tip go for ?

Check eBay. Probably score a very nice one for less than $40.

Can anyone recommend Either Razor Emporium or delta echo razors as far as restoration ?
