I don't usually go ga ga over these vintage Gillette razors but this one is worthy of all praise and glory. That is an absolutely magnificent razor!

WOW! Beautiful razor AND beautiful photography!

Good lighting and composition (and razor too!).

What camera/lens do you use?

 

[mr-razor]

I like the gold bladeholder. Your set is mint - great!

 

[cutting_edge]

Thank you kindly it really is a beauty.
I use a Rebel XTi camera with the standard 18/50 lens, but I am sure similar results can be obtained by more economical equipment.

The cutting edge man has the collection, the photography skills, and the knowledge to write the definitive Gillette DE book. As usual an exceptional example of a great razor.

I saw that you had picked that one up a week or so ago. Congratulations on the awesome razor. Welcome to the club.

You do take some awesome photographs. I wish I had your talent. Do you use a lighting tent? How far is the camera from the razor in these photos? Help a brother out!

Gorgeous razor. Is that going to be a shaver or just a looker?
