May possibly be interested, did just buy a super adjustable recently. Dunno if I wanna take a plunge with a shorter handle adjustable just yet :)

Why hasn't someone snapped this up? $22 is a great price, even with some minor discoloration. If you haven't tried the Gillette Adjustables, they're great shavers, and a virtually required part of your DE learning experience. Er, or maybe my RAD is just really bad.

Either way, this is a great razor. Skip five lattes and try it out!

Don't tempt me, I just bought the super adjustable and wanna try out the adjustable craze before I plunge into a fatboy or slim razor :smile:

I have another 20 or so razors to thin out. Maybe we can make a multi-post deal :biggrin:

You're a good salesman. :)

Actually, I contemplated this razor when it was posted, the price drop clinched it. I only started DE shaving about a week ago on a '54 flare-tip SS, so it's way too early to switch razors I think. This will be waiting for me when I'm ready. Who are we kidding though. I know I'll at least try it out once the day that I get it.

As long as you keep in down to around 3 the added weight may be helpful in keeping you from using pressure.

Very true. I've said elsewhere (once even today) that adjustables should be set to 3 the first month. I am not the first person to say this, however, it's just good advice and worth repeating.

Twenty?! Oh no, my RAD is flaring up. Crap. And I haven't even seen what you've got to offer.
