A few days ago i got a “new” razor. It is a Gillette Slim adjustable from 1962 that I found on ebay.<\/p>\n

This model has the same adjustment function for blade angle as the famous “fatboy”, by many considered the best Gillette razor. But this one has a little longer and slimmer shaft than the aforementioned “fatboy”, which gives a very good balance. I see at the discussion forum “badgerandblade.com” that many actually prefer this, to the “big brother Fatboy\u00bb\u00a0(http:\/\/badgerandblade.com\/reviews\/showproduct.php?product=3412<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The razor was in very good condition and is bright and shiny. Adjustment mechanism works smoothly.<\/p>\n

\"Slim\"<\/div>\n

The razor are now tested, and I’m excited!
\nThe razor is very nicely balanced \u2013 and despite the fact that the shaft is slender, the razor has a good weight. The shave went like a dream, and I adjusted the blade up to setting 3 Next time I plan to go on up to 6 The scale ends at 9, but then I guess it is quite aggressive.<\/p>\n

Also check this promo-film from 1961. It shows a man that uses the same model \u2013 and as the film says: “Get a real man shave, with water, lather, & Gillette” \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
