The 2 antique Gillette Tech razors arrived today. I simply am in awe of their condition.

One is WWII era, one is Korean War era, both are fantastic in condition.

I shaved tonight with the older of the 2 which is supposed to be slightly more aggressive. It was magical, effortless in its ease of use. I used an Astra SP in it and Arko soap.

Those guys on Badger and Blade are correct, razors were perfected in the 30s with the Gillette Tech. It is super efficient and mild at the same time.

I may have found nirvana in DE razors. My former favorite pales in comparison.

I will try the 1950s one next time, some say they are slightly smoother...I’ll have to experience that to believe it.

I’m glad you young guys are so happy with these razors from antiquity. This was all we had back in the day, and I hated them. The heads always came loose after a few strokes and the resulting loose blade would slash the shit out of your face.
I was so glad when technology advanced sufficiently to stop using these double-bitted axes. Never, ever again.

I remember my dad bitching about his razor chewing his ass up in the 70's.
I like a straight razor for closeness,like everything it takes practice

I was only kidding around by calling @hankpac a Boomer.

Likely he is that generation but I mean him no negative associations with that term.

Just me being a dick.

I do love using my DE razor though.

Granted I could see if rushed, in the bush, without proper prep and its been awhile since a blade change DE could be a shaving experience not fondly remembered.

I got into retro shaving as an FU to Gillette and their toxic masculinity agenda.
