Vintage Safety Razors

Goodbye, plastic razors!

In a fit of defiance against all those ridiculously expensive many-bladed, titanium-coated, moisture-stripped, plastic-encased replacement cartridges for all those enticingly designed razors (Fusion! Power! Silky! Women are from Venus! Men drive fast!), we picked up these vintage double edged safety razors at a local antique shop. They’re copper and brass, and made by Gillette sometime between the late 1920s and early 1940s.

Now I can walk by that stupid wall of replacement blades and disposable razors and just keep on walkin’. Oh yeah.
