They're all fantastic!  But that Damaskeene...whoa!!!  That turned out amazingly well

Thanks! It made a special razor for me even specialer! (see, Dave in KY, I didn't say anything  Big Grin)

Here is my polished Alpha Shaving Bandit Prototype.
JJ Shaves in the UK did a great job, looks like liquid gold.

I bought a pair of these a few years back from a member on the BST. I can’t recall who nor the specific model of razor. Look a lot like a tech. If anyone knows the model I’d be happy to know. The memory you know. The other one was in a blue box. I had them both replated by Chris at RazorPlate in the original gold because, well, gold. I gave the other one to my son. He mines gold do I figured he out to have a gold razor.

Looks beautiful.

I have one in good condition. I thought about having it replated but I don't really want to "erase" the laser engraved Gillette logo... I like it a lot. It's a nice touch.

Mark, I'm no professional but some came in a case that said "Gold Tech" it looks like a postwar Gold Fat Handle Tech.

I gave the other one to my son. He mines gold do I figured he out to have a gold razor. This makes perfect sense and I think it was a great idea, Marko!
