Thread: Saying hello and help with what type of razor.

Hi, i am new to the forum and to wet shaving in general. I got a Dovo Black Star for Christmas, but I just was unable to wait for it to get here. So I went down to the local antique shop looking for a present for my father and what did I find? A vintage Gillette DE razor, well I hope at least. I have done a little looking on line and have found that it might be a Gillette Gold Tech but I am not sure. I know that this forum has a wealth of knowledge and was hopping that that I could tap in to a little bit of it. This is the razor that I bought.

There are know numbers on it that I have found. On the bottom of the razor it just says: Reg. US, Pat. off, the Gillette symbol, and made in USA. any help would be great

Thank you in advance,
John
