    I just picked up my 100 new Gillette Platinum blades that I ordered from KLF here on the board. As usual, immediate shipping and quick delivery from Israel.

    Thanks Liorfe!

    I'll be exploring a couple of new-to-me soaps this month, and watching @HolyRollah's sell-off with great interest.

    Thanks Guys! I just realized that the lighting makes the razor look like it might have a gold finish. It's nickel. I watched a video from Razor Emporium: How to and How Not to Clean a Vintage Razor. Great advice and it gave me the confidence I wasn't going to mess it up.

    Now THAT's the kind of info folks come to TSD for!
    Also, my discerning eye noticed the blade is 'MADE IN U.S.A.'

    Your welcome! :happy088:

    On a somewhat more serious note people do seem to love these vintage thin blades.
    Here's a thread on the topic.
    It appears to be a carbon blade.

    Your blade seems to be from 1951 (but the patent numbers are different...so maybe not) :)
    (Once again, my deep insight and knowledge is really shining through here....)

    Your patent numbers matches this from 1950:

    And your date code is from 1951:

    So, ergo, I declare them to be early-1951 blades :)
