First time I tried GFT Limes was about 10 years ago when I went for a shave at the store on Curzon Street. They gave me a choice and I picked Limes. Been hooked ever since. Funny thing I remember about that shave -- which was great; multiple application of hot towels, skin food, and meticulous use of a str8 -- was that he used a Gillette Mach at the end to clean up a problem area around my chin. Seemed odd at the time, and definitely so now
Thanks Steve. It was on clearance at WCS and was my first Silvertip. I have a Parker that my wife bought me for Christmas last year. It's not in the regular rotation. Now that I'm reminded, I'll have to bust it out.
An interesting back story on GFT Lime. The print and package used to be green. Due to WWII shortages of green dye, Trumper's switched to pink...and never changed it back.
