They are basically made of pot metal. They aren't made like vintage Gillettes, but they stand behind their product.

 

Awesome, I'll contact them.

Thanks for the advice, people

I'm SOOOO glad I transferred my vintage Old Spice soap back to the Ol' Fashioned mug and left the lion bowl open for lathering! Look at the size of that lather ball. Hooray for 30 year old OS! Best. Soap. Ever.
