    Linuxguile dating an unusual aristocrat

    Some people have said this is a 46-47 and others a 48-51. What do you think ? Here is some evidence and arguments:

    Notched center bar(though it really doesn't look like a notched center bar, I just looks like its missing the butterflies), like a 48-51. On Blade tray “PAT. NOS. ON PACKAGE” like a 46-47 (Not visible in Pic) 2016-06-22 17.18.14.jpg
    no knurling on upper band like a 46-47.

    I haven't been able to fine another example like it searching the web or on Mr Razor

    Not sure, but it might be a case of a transition between the two years. Using up all the old parts before breaking out the new ones.

    I agree. It's a '48, made with some leftover parts from the '46-'47 run. Gillette was not in the habit of wasting parts.

    I'm hoping the head geometry is more like the 46-47. I like em a little more aggressive.

    I've never dated an aristocrat, let alone an unusual one. I dated the more common ladies.

    There's a reason I'm an administrative assistant and not a comedian!
    I have yet to figure out that reason, though. :think002:

    Personally, I'd make sure that she was quite old and ill and that the pre-nup is drastically in your favor. But, that's me. :rofl:
