Hi all! Its been a little while. I have much to update on and contribute as a still noob to the beautiful ways of wet shaving. Anyway my grandfather died this week and I inherited one of his razors and I don't know who makes it. I know who distributes it I think but not what it actually is or who makes it. I also got his GBS brush and mug but thats another thread. I'd love it if anyone could help me out if you know about his razor.
The other I got for my uncle on the way back from grandfathers funeral that was my great grandfather. I love those three men very, very much! It is a Gillette Travel Tech made in the second quarter of 1970 I believe by the the codes. My last shave was with it and it was surprisingly efficient! They are both very special to me and one of the best reminders I have of them (and the special soap my wife gave me). More on that in a coming thread. Anyway here they are with my Merkur 23c, or 34c cand remember.
Anyway here they are with my shaving kit. I love Van Der Hagen everything, I know its cheap but its great for me! I tried Feather, Wilkinson, Persona, and Merkur blades. For me Van Der Hagen all the way! I think they got better. I hear they used to suck. Anyway what is this razor if anyone knows?
