    Vintage Gillette Still waiting for confirmation from the "March Haul" but likely an 1940s Aristocrat.
    First time using Permasharp. Overall great combo.
    Planned the shave with the R89 but was not needed.

    @brit
    Thanks Gary, nice to get that confirmation. I have been trawling though the posts here and online but gave up. I see you are one of those that have the inside scoop on these Gillettes! Not a big deal to me to nail the specific year, late 40s is good enough for me. That makes this >10 years older than me, which is kind of cool. Just a surreal feeling to use a razor that old, flaws and all, and get such a great result.

    fair enough.certain models offer better results than others.most gillette fans agree that the 46-7 'crat it a finer shave than a 48-51 version.but that is that.enjoy your divulgence into said examples and chose your own favorites.:):eatdrink047:
