I never really considered buying a vintage razor.
The way I look at it, I wanted to start with something new, and at the same time support a company that's "still in the game"
Gillette is still 'in the game, they just make crappy razors now!

I've got a Merkur Vision and HD.
Yesterday I received my 1966 Gillette Slim Adjustable which I bought from one of the fine gents here. This morning's shave was on '2' which was relatively close and very comfortable. Far less agressive than either of my Merkurs.
I'll be sticking with the Gillette for a while.

but when is the last time they produced a DE safety razor? (that was my point)
