Gilllette suing Dolar Shave Club for patent infringement:Ouch! Gillette Suing Dollar Shave Club for Patent Infringement - NBC News
What is there about a straight which, at this point in time, COULD be patented?
I suppose a particular pin mounting process if it were unique enough . . .
This was kind of tongue in cheek....

Well, I don't know about cost being less...I shaved with a double edge for many years before I moved over to a straight. I see the double edge as a gateway drug of sorts. You have the soaps, the brush, the bowls/mugs...then the cost blows the roof off if you indulge in the sheer fun of the pursuit.Quote:

I was fine with one razor for about 10 years, then walked into an Antique store in the early 80’s, found SRP and the lid blew off…
I wonder how they are planning to sue for infringement on the Mach III "technology?" Hasn't the patent expired on that one? With that said, I understand Why Gillette is suing. By all accounts, it cost them $750 million to bring the Mach III to the market back in the late 90's and over $1 BILLION for the Fusion line. :dropjaw:
Evidently there suing over the "coating" on the blades...:shrug:Quote:
