Hi Guys
I recently acquired a NOS Gillette Toggle Date Code D 1.
It's a beautiful razor. I haven't shaved with it yet, I will be this week. I never owned or used a Toggle before. I do have a fatboy and Slim that I use regularly and i'm used to how those razors work.
I have a couple of questions for the Toggle owners out there.
When opening the razor does it matter which side you flick the lever open? Mine flicks opens both sides.
When i adjust the razor with the doors open i noticed that the safety bar or base plate kind of moves and isn't straight after adjusting, so i have to straighten it with my fingers, or just close the doors and it straightens on its own. Is this normal or a defect? my fatboy and slim don't do this. Is something loose perhaps?
I appreciate any info you can give me.
