    Gillette thin blades. The Fat boy I bought came with two of them and they work great. I am new and don't where to get them. Anybody know? Thanks in advance. Jason

    If they just said Gillette Thin blades, then I'm pretty sure that those are vintage and no longer made.

    If they said Gillette Super Thin then those are current production.

    Shoebox Shave sells current production Gillette Super Thins, but I don't know if that's what you meant. They're good blades, certainly, but not your only good choice. The Shave Den Store, "store", link at the top of this page, has new old stock Gillette Spoiler blades, and you can also find these on eBay, but they're pricey. Gillette 7 O'clock blades are another popular kind with the Gillette name on them.

    If you're new to DE shaving, I'd suggest getting a sampler pack of popular blades from some place like West Coast Shaving or Bullgoose, and find one or more that you like. Hope this helps.

    Thanks guys that does help. I hope those blades wern't something I sould have held on to but if so live and learn but like yall said there are many other choices. I heard everyone talking about feather blades so I bought some about a week ago and just got them tonight when I checked the mail. I eagerly used one and was very impressed with the sharpness. they found every imperfection on my face and my three year old daughter made sure that I knew I was bleeding!LOL I did achieve a BBS and the Pinaud Clubman AS let me know about every nick my daughter failed to mention! Thanks so much, Jason

    I swear Feathers should be labeled as "technique imperfection finders".
