Gillette Raised Flat Bottom parade

[imatabor]

If you want a good shave grab a NEW. If you want really good shave grab a NEW Deluxe. If you want the shave of a king then you need a RFB!


Efficient: Yes
Smooth: Oh yes, yes.

So let those who have one show off their Prizes. Let those who don't have one weep and mourn their loss.

Line the streets and wave the flags, here comes the parade!!

John...Did you inherit some cash? Now you are going to have to pick up a few more RFBs in addition to one more #16, and two double rings. Lucky for me I already have a pair. A French import #77 replated by Chris and a #44 ball end set. Thanks Brian as I didn't know it was a #44.

You might want to start with a new blade in a Tech (British Flat bottom or standard US) for the first 14 shaves...

No inheritance. Maybe a few less organs though.
For the record I haven't bought a DE for a long while. The #15 was the last purchase and I'm all done buying!!

Oh, we all here can definitely help in that regard.

Here are mine, on either end. The #77/88 on the right is made for the French market.

Here's my entry in this parade as well. First photo is my New Deluxe Red & Black set, and my New Belmont Deluxe-


And here's my only RFB New LC, an English #44 set-



I've got a Rotbart RFB as well, but that's a thread for another time!

 

[nuclearblast]

I need to take new pictures. I don't have pictures of my RFB sets all together, and I've got a couple of new sets that I added months ago.

They're still inside the suitcase in which they travelled 3600 kms recently.

One of these days ...


Nice pics btw [emoji106]

 

[JTillman]

Beautiful razors xillion! I have tried and failed on numerous occasions to get my hands on a Hybrid. Some day...

Here is my #88:

Nice #88. You have the after pic? Or are you saving all of your shorn hair to put in the beard receptacle as well?

 

[tonich]

You know... I don't have after pictures...
Oddly, most of my razors purchases came with a large amount of hair in it. And the more hair I got with the razor, the less money I had to spend on it. Ha!
And NO - I haven't been saving the hair for a second use.
