    Default 1937 Gillette Sharaton

    Went and picked it up from my friend today. It cleaned up pretty nice. Used my phone for pics in bad light so the color is kinda off.

    Looking forward to trying it out in the morning.

    I feel like if I found one of these OC TTOs I would have all the DE's I could ever need next to my New and New Improved.

    You lost me with all the acronyms bud.

    I can't believe someone passed this on as junk. Such a great shave from this thing.

    Nice looking DE. Still amazed at how well the older DE/SE razors shave. It's good it went to someone who can appreciate it and use it.

    I love the twist to open.

    the Gillette New and Gillette New Improved are both older models of OC safety razors (compared to TTOs) that I already own and love. they are three piece designs where the head and handle completely separate.

    Ah. I see.

    I'm toying with the idea of disassembling this Sharaton, to try and clean the internal.

    Nonstrickron,
    You did well with that coveted razor. It appears to be in good shape, too. Good show, my friend. Enjoy it.
