  5. Thank you Gary. I have two flare tips, this one with aluminum handle, and a 1956 with a brass handle. Both shave about the same but the brass one is indeed more solid and feels a tad more substantial. I agree, they are the best Gillette razors - at least in their respective shaving range. Although I am a sucker for adjustables…

    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #119 Synthetic
    Gillette English Flat Bottom NEW
    PolSilver Super Iridium Blade
    CWR
    Mennen Skin Bracer

    The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #119 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette English Flat Bottom NEW Razor and the PolSilver Super Iridium Blade blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Mennen Skin Bracer After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  7. Thanks Gary. Correct the 1939 Popular needs to opened manually, I guess it lost its "spin" sometime in the last few decades. Great little razor though, even though it's tarnished and well used.

    thanks Gary
