I hope to find one eventually that I can add to my collection. Oh, for the record, I weighed my MMBTs and found that the plastic tip one is 55g while the metal tip one is 68g. Interesting.
Interesting about that weight difference -- hard to believe the metal tip alone brings it up 13 grams....or maybe it's not so hard to believe, that is just shy of a half of an ounce. But I do wonder if the tip is the only difference or if the internal mechanisms have a little difference between them as well.
In terms of the "bumpless" Micromatic, I just stumbled on to mine....it came in with a razor lot that had another GEM I was targeting (can't even remember what that razor was now). It wasn't until later that I learned of the differences and I was happy to learn that I have one. I've got to say, I just cannot tell a difference at all in the shaves between the older ("'bumpless") and the younger "bumped" models.
