What are you waiting on to arrive?

[nick_s]

they sound ideal for my purposes, i will experiment with different blades, for example try using a more aggressive blade in them..what caught my eye was the classic design, things, as they say built to last then, not like the chuck away shite you get these's days..thanks for insight into the world of Gillette Techs.Regards.Barry

I look forward to seeing them in action Barry

Congrays! The T70 is a remarkable looking razor. I started cartridge shaving with the Bonded System when it first came out, then switched to the Trac II a few years later. But I don't remember the T70. Do you know when it was it released?

I should do a T70 "family photo" I think I got all the four different models

You stole that. Nice find.

Unless of course with my recent luck they are all rusted and useless

You didn't outbid me on these, so no curse[emoji12]

i have had some of the vintage gillette blue blades (card box with the portrait on it) i wouldnt advise shaving with them, even NOS they are nothing like what you are used to with modern blades. nice to put in sets though.

I'm waiting for a 1940's Gillette tech and a 1974 Gillette tech. Got them both on eBay for £14 posted. No plate loss and in great condition. Absolute bargain.

I was looking at one of these too but I ended up with one in Best. I'm so happy with that I'm going to pass on the Manchurian(I already have a few Manchurian. )

Yes, I noted and actually was looking at your brush the other day.
But I have an issue with Best knots in general, being a fan of Two-Banders or Finests.

I've had Manchurians from Simpsons but never really used them, so in the process I read that after the first break-in period the Manchurian becomes very sweet, so let's see.

The loft is a tad on the short length for me but I had to listen to Mark as they do obviously know why they usually set the knots at every specific length depending on the model.
