Ok, I've got 2 identical adjustables (L2 & J1), but I've heard several names for adjustables...

  • Gillette Adjustable
  • Gillette Slim Adjustable
  • Gillette Super Adjustable
  • Gillette Super Slim Adjustable[/list:u]

    Are these the same?

    I can distinguish between a black handle adjustable and a normal one, or a fatboy, but the others nomenclatures boggle me..

    What, if any is the difference between these?

    This may be a complete newb question, but rather be a fool for asking a question, then be a fool for not knowing.. :p

The Gillette Adjustable is the Fatboy (which is not a term Gillette ever used) and was sold as "the Gillette Adjustable"
The Gillette Slim Adjustable was sold by Gillette as simply "the Gillette Adjustable"
The Super (Slim) Adjustable came in two handle lengths, should always have a black handle.

All of them come in gold and silver-coloured variants with various names (Executive, Aristocrat, Gold Super Adjustable)

A poke around at Achim's <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://mr-razor.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://mr-razor.com</a><!-- m --> site will no doubt prove my hazy recollection wrong on many points.
