    HAHAHA!!!!! I remember that as well! There was also a Flame thrower razor, a Laser Razor, and a pair of "Plucker" razors that pulled the hairs out by the roots!(both manual and battery powered models)

    I digress somewhat () but there was a skit on the second episode of SNL where they spoofed the then-newly introduced double bladed razor by holding up a three-bladed razor. It actually was pretty uncanny with what eventually did come out, and what the commercials looked like, with the "first blade pulls the hair" bit.
