I want to know what parts and what several broken donor razors make up your Frankensteined Gem Micromatic.
I received a bunch of damaged razors to use in making someone a couple of handles like the one I made for you. Most had badly dented top caps some had damaged guard bars or broken Open comb teeth. Included were a Micromatic Flying Wing aka Bullet Tip and a Clog-pruf Peerless. The person who sent them to me said I could keep all the extra stuff so I carefully disassembled them and put the good but worn baseplate from the Clog-pruf peerless on to the Bullet tip handle with a guiding eye top cap. I don't think the the top cap was from the same razor as the handle. These razors aren't exactly easy to disassemble and are even more difficult to reassemble. So anyway, this razor is now a Micromatic Bullet Tip Clog-pruf Peerless with Guiding Eye. Or Micromatic Flying Wing Clog-Pruf with Guiding Eye. Or something like that. I need to figure out a proper name and stick with it. Eventually I hope to find damaged donors razors to put together a Micromatic Open Comb Bullet Tip. I have spares of the two razors needed but would rather take parts from ones that are already damaged. And I believe I already have a good Open Comb base plate from a previous project. I'd have to check my parts bin.
