A sought after razor indeed- the British Light Duty Rocket! Great overall condition on this razor with nothing bent or broken and great mechanical condition. For those who have not seen how a Rocket razor works, the TTO functions in a unique way by having the knob turn up into the handle. This TTO feels higher quality then its American counterparts!
A rarer razor to find in the US, and definitely not common over seas. This razor weighs 1.2oz exactly, 34 grams. Tray reads Patent Pending.
