Totally, right?
combines the clamp mechanism w/ a solid handle that has nice knurling.
Both the streamline and the G-Bar fit that description, and I think I prefer the Streamline between the two.
Kinda gets me in the mood for vintage razor hunting again 😄
I’m also happy to loan you a bunch of you want to try before you buy.

Yeah, I thought the TTO/Butterfly mechanism was something that only came to be way later. Both the MMOC that I got from you as well as my Flying Wing are such solid razors.
I can see your point in the Streamline. Definitely looks really solid too. There’s just something I really like about the G/E-Bar razors’ conic handle shape. Kinda makes it look like a knife handle and I dig that. Weird, I know 😅
Thanks for your offer - I might get back to you once the postal service Christmas chaos here in Germany is over!
