Gillette Ball End Tech and Valet Auto Strop

[Boro62]

Finally got a chance to check out some local antique shops with the SO. Found a Gillette Ball Tech Stamped H and 2, which i think means its made in the second quarter of 1962? (not sure though). Also got a Valet Auto Strop Runner Guard (I think that's what its called...it's has a guard and is not open combed). I picked up the auto strop mainly because I always thought they looked cool. The Gillette Ball Tech I plan on using. Paid $20 for the pair. Anyways here are some pics after a bit of cleaning.

Looks like a couple of nice finds to me! I love the Tech! Be careful, though, as they'll multiply on you! I have 5 that I use all the time! Thanks for sharing!!

Feather makes a single-edge blade with center cutouts that will fit the Auto Strop. They are quite interesting to use!
