Nice there Fuzzy. I have seen them on there before, but as I don't smoke stogies, I never really paid attention to them. When looking at the page you linked to, it showed another one up for sale, at a much higher price btw. From looking at the pics yours and the other one, it looks like they made 2 different models to accommodate the different blades, just like their razors.

Got this in today.. looks great.. I have to figure out how to get the blade out. I think I can modify a SE blade to work in it looks like, I hope so.

Well just figured out that it takes the old Valet blade..the one that has the name cut into it., can not use the modified SE blade like some of the auto strop razors... well it still looks good on the shelf.

Fuzzy Question for you guys..... Do you think that a NOS valet blade could be used for this anyway. It would not have to be sharp enough to shave after all. It's a thought. Fuzzy

I use Feather SE blades in my autostrop, because the cutouts match well. Do you have any of those? I can send you one if you would like.

Where can I buy some of these? I would expect they are more expensive. It would be nice to have a few for my razor, then keep them for the cutter. Fuzzy

The Panatella was America's favorite size around that time frame. I still enjoy them too, occasionally, when you get one that draws worth a damn. I missed this before... I agree that when they draw well there is nothing wrong with them at all. Fuzzy
