'47 Aristocrat, vintage Australian Gillette blade (2)

awesome gillettes gentlemen

 

SOTD Friday 30 August

• Razor Gillette British Rocket FlareTip
• Blade Gillette Minora Stainless (12)

• Aftershave Brut Splash

The Morning Shave.
The Gillette Minora Stainless blade was in my c1950’s Gillette British Rocket FlareTip today.

I collected a couple of very minor weepers from today’s shave. This blade has finally lost its edge. After 12 full head & face shaves the Gillette Minora will be swapped out.
Must be honest with the quality, this is a great daily shave blade, especially if travelling and not wanting to take an assortment.

This was part of a group participation shave; I do usually have a couple blades on the go at once to rotate.
Looking forward to next week’s choices. I have a few blades from a 20-sample pack.

 

Oh yeah absolutely, if it isn't broke there's no need to change to something more modern. My trusty 56 year old Gillette Slim gives me a much better shave than I ever was able to get with modern electric and disposable razors before I finally saw the light one day out of pure curiosity and decided to switch over to the art of safety razor shaving.

 

cool rocket shave.welcome and thank you for posting here.

 

Thx Gary

 

fantastic pics Chris,phone or camera?
