  2. In my inventory? The Gillette '58 TV Special is my current favorite.
    On my wish list? The Gillette Toggle, but I'd settle for a Fat Boy or a Slim as my first adjustable DE, which I think would take the number one spot in the hopefully near future. :)

  5. My favorite would have to be my Exectuive, but I get a better shave from my short handle black beauty.

  6. so far my Black Beauty
  7. I've only tried two, my NEW LC and my Fatboy. So far, the NEW gets top vote, but I haven't had time to give the Fatboy a fair chance yet. My plan is to use it for most of November, and maybe December after OCtober is up.
  8. I have not yet tried any vintage Gillette's. I have tried all the carts from TracII to fusion. Currently, my favourite is the Flexball. The reason is that it has never touched my face. Once I heard the rumors about the Flexball being released, I said "This is crazy. There has to be a better way". That lead me to discovering DE shaving. One day I hope to try one of the fine vintage Gillettes :)

  15. I bought a red tip on eBay last week and shaved with it twice so far. I used an Astra blade with Proraso white tub (my go-to soap). It was a mild shave but still very smooth after 3 passes.

  18. Short handle Super Adjustable is the first vintage Gillette that has really stood out as a great shaver for me personally. I have and occasionally use a 40s Superspeed, Milady Decolletee (that I usually use with a standard handle), and a LC NEW. Previously had a SC NEW as well. I prefer my SEs and my Merkur Slant to all those, but the Black Beauty is now up in that top group, too.

  19. After the '41 Ranger, that's probably favorite non-adjustable Super Speed. In fact, I was planning to shave with it tonight, thanks for the kick in the pants!

    *heads off for a shave*

  20. Right now it's my New SC...even though I probably get a better shave from my fat handle Tech. Before long a SuperSpeed will enter the fold. My bets are still on the New SC. I love the way that thing looks!
