anyone know what DE is this?

an uncle of my wife's gave me this DE and i don't know what it is... he said is a gillette but... please 'enlighten' me

i cant seem to figure out how to upload pics without hosting them up on another site first but ill give an exact description,please bare with me.

so it's a TTO with blue plastic handle and another metal knob at the bottom,
non adjustable and a little on the agressive site compared to my plastic wilkinson DE,and it opens at the top under the head.

thanks alot and if u have a pic of your own please post it .

thanks alot,cheers

i think i found it but this is the usa version and on mine says gillette england R 3 this is it http://countryjoescollectiblestuff.c...ette-knack.jpg Gillette Knack Razor, Long Handle 1970 what do u guys think about this DE ? i shaved with it but i used a wilkinson classic blade and it doesnt work good for me blade wise but i like the feel of the head coz it is head heavy i'll be trying other razors and report back on how it shaves. how do u think it will compare with a muhle r89 as i plan on ordering one of those in the near future? thanks alot regards.

I purchased new in the early 70's a Gillette Long Handle DE Razor......just used it last week and it gave me a good shave - use a Gillette blade. I have several dozen DE razors, and use them all often....

The DE's are fun to use but there are many many different ones out there and they just about all shave differently. I have a pretty good collection of old Gillettes, and I even have a couple of Knack's like yours, but I've found that I prefer using the newer DE's made by Merkur....I just prefer the weight they have over most of the older ones. Keep trying different blade and razor combinations until you find what works best for you!

oh... it looks like i've found it ... please confirm if i did...

i think ive attached some pics too...

and a pic ive found

its a super slim twist but on mine says england. thanks

and the question remains,how would you compare this slim twist to a muhle r89?

regards
