Does the Gillette extended family of brands still produce a carbon steel blade?
I imagine that carbon steel blades were typically used in razors from the 40s and 50s (though I may be wrong about that). If correct in this assumption, I would like to try a period type of blade in my vintage razor.
I actually do have a few unused old Gillette Blue Blades (that came with my Gillette Tech), but I am keeping them unopened for sentimental reasons and don't expect them to be in optimal usable condition at this point.
I'm open to information and suggestions regarding carbon steel blades in vintage razors.
Cheers!
