    Thank you Mark. Your DK 7XL was the inspiration for me ordering this one.

    I'm waiting for Christmas and my "mystery razor" my youngest son is getting me. I feel pretty good about it as I've spent a good amount of time with him discussing wet shaving and razors.

    Nope. I do know it's a vintage Gillette, because he had asked me to give him a list of vintage Gillette's that I already had. I also gave him a couple of my regular vendors that I buy from websites, he's been researching this for a month now.
    My sons 25 so I feel like I'm in good hands.

    I like the shape and it should clean up well I think.
    Are there any marking on the bottom of it?

    Very nice. All I can say is that its post 1886 (as that's when they moved to Taunton).
    Rough guess: 1890-1905 or so. (They might have been owned by "F.B.ROGERS SILVER CO" ). Very nice.

    Being a Bay Rum junkie I came across this and had to try it: Beaver WoodWright Jolly Roger Gift Set: Pretty interesting scent: Cardamon, Oranges, Rum, Anise Ginger and hint of Cinnamon.

    My initial order of the SV Tundra Artica was cancelled due all of the bottles BG received as being damaged so found another vendor who had one in stock

    Hello all, I'm waiting on a 1906 Gillette Single Ring, in a rare, or at least scarce case. It's hard to tell in the photos, but if you look at the corners of the exterior of the case, you will see they are rounded. This is a very early style. I have one case now like it, and I'm excited to get this one too. You don't see this style of case very often. I think I've heard this type of case referred to as a ducktail. I can't recall for sure though. Anyway the set is arriving in Omaha as we speak, but it won't reach me until Monday. Here's a couple of screenshots of the set-
