Just picked up a snotter of a Gillette Old on EBay.
Quite a lot of brassing and the usual cracks in the handle. Only bought it for trying so that doesn't matter.
However, it does have a stamp on the head with a G inside a D. Apparently (according to some blurb I read) that means it was returned to Gillette for a free repair and Gillette stamped it so it couldn't be repaired twice?
Is this true, or a load of old hogwash?
