1934 Gillette Aristocrat. View attachment 1300168

Slim profile head then? Can we get a side shot?

Got both of these from @NoScrubs and can't wait to try them out. A Timeless bronze, and a pre-war Tech.

Stellar customer service from Tara. The same can be said about the workmanship. The long wait was worth it!

What did I find today? The top one has a silver plate, so I’m expecting it to be a salvaged razor.

The top razor is a Gillette NEW, but the bottom plate looks like it came from a Gillette Tech. A "Frankenrazor".

The bottom razor is a gold Tech with a ball-end handle.

Thank you. The gold ball is a Z-4, my birth year. I figured the New was a Frankenrazor.

Lucky to have gotten this NOS Schick. Even luckier is the dude who got his hands on dozens of these and selling on the bay.

I almost don't want to open this..

DO NOT OPEN. Keep it NOS always

If you DON'T open it, some other guy will get to enjoy it after you're dead.
Open it, use it, enjoy it now.
Unless you plan to sell it for a profit as NOS, it's a complete loss not to use it.

Take it with you. You can be buried with it.

For some of us, that would mean substituting pall bearers with a fork lift!

So gonna steal that line... "Your 'den' is a bathroom, not a museum" that is classic and truth rolled into one statement !

Open says me. You know you want too...

Should have bought two, one to open, one to NOS. Now you have to live with the consequence of your decision

I have two other schicks..for some reason I got into a loop and bought two before. When I sell the other two and get rid of them I will open this fella.
