  • Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable

  • Blade: Gillette Perma-Sharp (1)

Purchased a 1966 Gillette Slim Adjustable razor (L4) on eBay, and it arrived today. Decided to give it a go after work. Stuck it on 3, and did 2 passes on my face and 3 on my neck. Zero irritation and a smooth shave; it is, indeed, a very nice razor. I can see why they were, and still are, so popular. I stuck it on 3 since I’m used to Henson razors and am used to mild razors. I think I’ll bump up my first WTG pass to a 5 next time I shave to see how it is. Still need to work on my technique (especially since my neck hair grows at an angle), but I have no regrets about this purchase.
