I'm a big fan of vintage Gillette! Today I used my 1934 Aristocrat.
i’m relatively new to wet shaving, but quickly got addicted. Approximately 60 days in and I already own five razors now, the latest being a Gillette new SC that I found in an antique shop for $15. Pretty nice condition for what it is. I had no idea what it even was. I just went up and asked how much it was because it wasn’t priced and took it at $15. I researched it later and found out what it was. I’m excited to try it out. Cool looking little razor.

This was a duplicate shave of the last shave, since it was very good. The Slim is a great adjustable, there's a setting for everyone, from mild to wild!
This, too was an excellent shave!
