    I am sorry. I stand corrected. For some reason, I thought Cooper and French was a Canadian brand. I was thinking Henri et Victoria soaps.

    I am tired. I edited my last post. It should have read that I thought Cooper and French was a Canadian brand. I was thinking Henri et Victoria. Lol!

    You are 70, I could have sworn you were only 65--68 but a harder 65--68.

    I said my dad is turning 65 I was saying: It will be cool to say hey you are both 65 in meaning the shaver an F2 is 65 like he is and give him 65 blades in total each in a 5 pack. He looks like he is 60 to people who do not see him on a regular enough basis.

    It was hard to find a 1960's shaver with the case. Most of the Gillette Super Shavers were without the case where most without a case were not working/barely working with most of the working models being expensive for a Super Shaver (over $30 USA) due to 1 of 2 reasons; 1st is the Super shaver is restored often with the case or expensive for having a Gillette dispenser either with or without the case, where in the no case often the case might not be working due to heavy layers of rust on the springs inside and charging what people do for others of the same model with a working Gillette dispenser and case. Some sellers trying to pass off a modern Persona Blue 10 blade dispenser the after 2019--2020 versions without logos on the blades or the front of the dispenser as a Gillette dispenser with the case and Super Shaver.

    2 days growth

    Greetings,

    A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

    The vast majority of my shave set ups are very in-expensive, today proved to me yet again that I can always get pleasurable shaves from traditional wet shaving accessories that don't cost the earth.

    Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Brut Sport Style ASL.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.:cool:
