English Gold Rocket

I received this Made in England Gold Rocket from Rob in Canadia. It has a few little blemishes on it, but over all, it is a fine razor. It was made from 1948 through 1954. It has a gold finish, but it is very light. It is a heavy razor compared to super speeds of the same time frame. It has good balance and is an excellent shaver. Many thanks to Rob for this fine razor. It will have a special spot in my collection.
