The Gillette Tech

I have two English "ball end" post-war Tech razors of which one I use for 95%+ of my shaving. I can think of no better "daily driver" DE razor extant. It has weight, blade rigidity & perfect balance. Don't waste your money on hoidy toidy, artsy fartsy, "boutique" artisan razors made of stainless steel that cost a small fortune and really shave no better despite Beau Brummel wannabes claiming otherwise. If you "listen" to the Tech it will show you how to shave properly with correct technique and you will therefore be able to spend that extra dough on soaps, blades & brushes. Respect, love & obey the Tech. It is the "way".

Mate, let me know if you want to release one of those. I have 3 oval slot ones and have wondered if the triangle ones shave any differently.

I'm not ready to release any back into the wild just yet. And shipping would probably cost more than the razor is worth, I'm in the US.

Keep an eye on the bay, there's always at least one or two on there.

Here's mine.








One is Canadian, some say they shave better, I can't tell the difference.






And I have one of these little guys, not a bad shaver.
