fine shave indeed,smooth,efficient,did the job..
Am i glad Gillette has a new DE razor? Yes..they did invent the de blade and should have a handle to which they can use their current blades in.only fitting imo..
Did Gillette make this razor? Yes.In theory.they currently don't own equipment to manufacture razors anymore but it contains it's original old type design traits,and in reality,how many Gillettes were really their design after the old type..so many acquisitions during the 30s made for many mixed designs..
Is this razor genuine? .Yes..while many will say Gillette is trying to re-enter and make $$ from others ,why shouldn't they?.they invented the very market over 100 years ago with their same business model.
Will it replace my old razors?.No,i love my vintage Brits for many reasons as well as their shaves..but that is my bias..
one can judge Gillette for many reasons both good and bad..but they built great shavers that worked for the masses,generations of clean shaves.they gave razors/blades in both world wars and for many veterans their wartime razors were used for years afterwards.i am glad to see Gillette DE razors back in stores.still one of the best in the business..
