I wonder what the price is and how many were made! The gentleman who posted it on Instagram has a vast collection of shaving gear.

Oh ok so price isn't listed and do we know it is even offered by Rocnel or maybe the man who owns the razor had it plated in 24kt gold.

Hhmm, certainly not.

It's gold plated, not gold made. Gillette did this decades ago and their premium TTO models still look much better than this 150g. thing.

Contact Murat from Rocnel directly on Instagram or through Rocnel.com for these. He will also possibly be offering the new Sailor in that Gold plating and in a black titanium coating down the road.

It's certainly a nice box and kinda reminds me of the Raw Shaving box

Honestly, you might wanna send your SS razor to Razor Emporium, RazorPlate or Back Roads Gold to get 24K gold plating.
Ask them before send your razor. As far as I know, Back Roads Gold is plating 24K gold & polishing as $65.

You mean brass, I think. A lot of vintage Gillette's are brass and take plating well. AFAIK, you can't plate SS. I may be wrong but I dont think so.
