    The Wilkinson Sword Wilman II by Gillette, these have now been branded as Gillette's. They are identical to the PII's except the dye used in the plastic, they appear to be made in the same factory as the PII's. They are slightly cheaper than PII's in India. As Wilkinson Sword owned 50% of Wiltech, which was sold to Gillette, I was hoping these would be different from the Trac II based PII's...

    A few years ago I found an unused travel kit at a yard sale. It had a T-II style plastic handle (unmarked) with a slightly larger 2-blade cart, kind of a cross between a standard T-II and the Wilkinson Bonded, and no lube strip. It shaved fantastically well but I've seen them nowhere since. Now I realize why it was so good -- it had to be one of Wilkinson's.

    Is it possible to post a picture showing the back of the two packs? :)

    "Wilkinson sword and crossed swords device are registered trademark of the Gillette company", that is something I might never be able to digest. Two rivals acting as one. Anyway, thank you for granting my request. :)
