Bump!

iKon S3S is now SOLD ***

PILS 101NE & matching stand are still available - act soon to avoid disappointment!!!

Very good reduction in price for items which are basically, BRAND NEW.

Save on postage with these bargains!

Price reduction on these two beautiful examples of stainless steel. Note that as well as significant reduction on the brand new price (including the postage to you), they both have only been used seven (7, count 'em) shaves & are in mint condition, no marks, no scratches & in the original bo...

Must try one of these.....

Definitely a YMMV argument.

The best argument for the Tradere, is that being non-adjustable; you tend to find the sweet spot quicker than when you're constantly making adjustments to a Futur

Have used mine for a week long stretch - can only say that I'm very impressed with the performance.

It's excellent value for money!

I've ruined good colognes in the past, by leaving them on the shelf.

To ensure longer life, it is more suitable to keep them in a dark, cool area.

The variation that can be provided by shimming should be looked at; to prevent having to go out & buy another razor.

I haven't had that problem.

Where may this product be bought???

(internet supplier)

How hard is it to pack a "regular" razor?

Space has never been THAT much of a problem in my experience.

I'm just finding out about shimming.....

It seems to be a cheap way of adjusting a non-adjustable razor to your own preferences!

D R Harris Aftershave Milk sounds like a product I should try....

Help prevent the Cap'n from walking the plank!!! SWMBO came upon the credit card statement, which revealed recent razor purchases that maybe had not been discussed prior to them being made...... Nevertheless, I'm able to redeem myself by passing on these beautiful shaving implements to a new owner. ...

Just received my DLC with the (longer) classic handle the other day.

Extremely impressed - this razor offers amazing value for money & can provide an equal, or better shave than a razor costing 3 times as much.

If you're on the fence about getting one of these, don't be; they're great!

It seems that even Merkur is trying to jump on the stainless steel bandwagon. Actually, just the handle is SS, the head is their standard chrome plated one. Judging by the look of it alone, I don't think this will do, if I'm honest. http://www.shaving.ie/products/Merkur-43c-Stainless.html Agreed. F...

If any of these combinations are attempted, you're guaranteed that the shaving head will never hit the floor first when you drop it!!!
