Feather 1200

And here’s my new Feather 1200. The topcap and baseplate varies but the handle appears similar?

63 grams of heavy chromed brass. Yummi!

Man, this 1200 shaves wonderfully! Smooth and mild as a Tech but at 63 grams much better weight and balance

Very nice razor Peter, that 1200.

The model number sounded familiar and so I did a google search on it and found a B&B thread on it. I was surprised to find out that the thread was started by me and that I was reviewing the 1200 that I had just received. Yes, great shaver. It seemed to be the only vintage Feather model that did not have a Tech base plate, but instead was heavier and had an upward facing style guard similar to the Progress

You still have it?

Yup, your razor is completely identical to mine, Les, even down to the ‘4’ engraving - I have shaved with it the last 3 days, it is an amazing shaver!
