I actually received this soap a month ago but am now posting it up here. The wetshaving community is so kind with the handwritten notes and the way they make themselves available to us. This soap is incredible, by the way; I enjoy all of my shaves with it. The post shave is very light and nourishing too. Have a great weekend everyone!

I picked this up today at an antiques fair. I think it's a Gillette New Improved Standard model. It looks as if it was once fully finished in gold but most is gone apart from at the central handle barrel part. Everything points to it being the New Standard even the case but I have bought vintage Gillette with unmatching cases before. The only thing that doesn't match up to the examples on the Mr Razor website is the pattern on the tightening knob. It doesn't have the straight lined border pattern between the full and half diamond pattern on it.
Any info would be appreciated.

Beautiful handle! What's the knot size are you putting in the handle?
Don't quite know yet. Probably 24 or 25mm.
