Über Bum
In essence, it's a closed comb Raised Flat Bottom New made in a few runs in 1939. In practice, it marries the smoothness of the flat bottom English Tech with the slightly greater efficiency of the New in a rhodium-plated package. Thanks to its rarity its reputation is naturally hyped up, but it is still a fine razor and a great addition to my small-but-lovely collection.
Thanks! How well explained.

Forum GOD!
Very nice but have you seen the price of their new library of scents, containing the 14ml bottles? I think I would rather spend the money on two full bottles of Floris.
I received an email from them the other day. I think I'll give it a miss.
Of the three samples, No 89 was the one which stood out for me. Would I buy a full bottle? Probably not.
