Where Do You Find Double Edge Safety Razors In Buenos Aires?

[nicoenarg]

This may be a long shot but does anyone know if there's a store that maybe deals in double edged, single blade safety razors.

I'm talking about these old school ones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Razor#/media/File:Chrome-Safety-Razor.jpg

Perhaps a specialty store that sells stuff like these razors, blades, shaving brushes, creams, after shaves etc?

PS: I know imports are "open", I'd much rather buy something from here if at all possible.

Thanks, its the actual razor that's hard to find. Mercadolibre only has really old, used ones listed so far that I can see.

Hey Nico i'd try an old harware store or a traditional pharmacy, i once found a straight razor for shaving, like in the old west, luckily i still have my grandpappi's german made by soligen..... good luck with your search

Here it is called "hojita gillette" or " la gillette". Can be found at art supplies stores, like leidi, or medical supplies shops around facultad de medicina (av cordoba and azcuenaga).

For anyone else who might stumble on this thread, I found two old doube edge gillette razors in San Telmo's antiques/flea market. They are in very good working condition and I'm using one of them. If anyone's interested in this, let me know and I can help out. But in the flea/antiques market you can find these razors everywhere.

As for blades (hojas de gillette) you can find them in most any kiosk, especially those that are near barber shops.
