Gillette Safety Razors, Let'm Roll !!

Hey Guys,

It was a good week for Gillette Safety Razors. The first two razors, a 1957 and 1955, cost $5.00 each, that included shipping. It does not get much better than that. :D

The Gillette Black Handle Super Speed, 1968, is in practically new condition.

Fell free to add any Gillette safety razors to this thread.

Thanks for looking,,,,:)

Yes, they were, the 1955 will go to a guy that is now using a Wal Mart VHD razor from China, can't have that. :shrug:

Walmart DE? Shudder.

I was perusing the bay this afternoon and noticed the Gillette Adjustables seem to have gone down in price this last year.

It does seem that way, I picked one up last month for $25.00 , I believe it was, but I usually grab them within the first hour they hit the bay.

Picked this British Aristocrat up a while back, no case but absolutely mint. This is the third one I have had, sold one on. One of the nicer looking DEs ever made. Rhodium plated. Was a ridiculously cheap buy now on a local auction.

The market for the common gillettes is incredibly soft right now. Softest in years.

That's a good thing for me, as I use the common ones to get guys off the disposables & into wet shaving.

Yes, it's nice. Every time I see an Aristocrat, it is in a bidding war. Or priced way to high for me.

DE market is solid down here, more popular than the straights.

Tried one China DE a few years back, plating was literally falling off within a month. Maybe I got a bad one...:roflmao
