    I got these 3, what I believe are Gillette Wilkinson Sword razors with a flip top/click action top. I’m very certain these are from 1998 as on the back of the packages there’s a stamp that says “PKD 18-7-98”. If you have any info on these razors let me know. If I’m mistaken on their date of production let me know. I just want to learn about these razors. 9628F5D6-B14E-403B-82A1-6D0788880DAF.jpeg

    Weird...I've never seen those type of razors in consumer packaging (outside of India).

    I can't help with I.D. or anything, but that style of razor is still made for hospital/medical purposes. The medical prep razors are single use/disposable.

    Edit: the date format is uniquely British, or rather, European.

    Look like the Philippine's Gillette Rubie Click.

    Here’s a video of me shaving with one of these razors. Thank you @PLANofMAN and @BigD for your info and knowledge.

    You're welcome. Your video came up in my feed. Enjoyed it. You're a brave man using that razor. As you can see, mine is still in the package.
