I havent shaved with a DE in over a year. So i was on e-bay dubbing around and got to looking at vintage DE razors,and this 1956 maroon tip Super Speed Gillette caught my eye. I had to have it because thats the year i was born, good excuse to but one!!! It showed up today and i just gave it a ride on my face. The cheeks are BBS 3 passes,up/down/sideways,now the neck i only did a down then up,hard to do a sideways,so the neck and below the jaw is not that great but ok.The neck area is where the STRAIGHT KICKS ASS!!! JMHO
