I still have my dad's old Gillette Fatboy razor, which he would have been using in the 1960's. I cleaned it up and have shaved a few times with it, as of course as safety razor shavers around the world know, today's DE blades still fit perfectly well. A safety razor is built to last multiple generations. Try that with today's cartridge razors - you won't find blades for them in 40 years time, or by then the blades purchased, will have bankrupted you!

I just really regret my dad never let me into the secret of safety razor shaving, and I had to suffer ingrown hairs for 30 years before I discovered this...
