My father is well aware of my passion for traditional shaving but dad was a dedicated injector guy and wouldn't go near a vintage Gillette.
While talking to dad a few weeks back he mentioned that since a number of my uncles had passed recently he'd put out the word that if any heirloom razors showed up to pass them to either me or dad rather than toss them and since the razor topic came up I suggested a single edge might be of interest since it's really just a deeper,manually loaded injector and a lot easier and cheaper blade source for a less than internet savvy fellow.
Today I was finally able to drop of his belated birthday gift of a cased minty fresh 50's era Gem,10 pack of Gem SE blades and a can of Rise foam.
