Gillette's Finest

this set was for the brit market,though all the razors are brit made.the earlier rockets/aristocrat jrs had the slightly larger twist knob.

 

Oops, German flyer is in MY pic under the razor. You can only see a sliver of the print but it is the same as the one Gary posted. Methinks the glass of Kombucha from my last batch has a bit more alcohol content than usual.

 

Hello, some of the red Parat cases have made in England, others nothing on their bottom, never saw Germany. But all came with German manuals.

 

Shave tonight with my birth-year Gillette Slim. A classic. Like me.

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger
Gillette New Improved
Astra SP
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette New Improved with an Astra SP gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Everyone has the need to shave with a Brit New at least once in lifetime.

 

Gillette's Finest Razors? For me, it is the 20s and 30s Open Combs. I've rotated through these 5 as part of OCtober. The NEW LC is still king for me, but any of the 5 are as good as it gets:

 

Those are some truly fine razors.
