It's rumored to be very mild but I haven't decided yet if I have the heart to open up the box so I can't tell.....

or I could just sell you mine if you're within the USA....  Tongue

Ha. Now there's a tempting thought...I could keep mine unopened!! Smile

send me a PM if you decide. no rush, it's been sitting in a box in my drawer for years.

As far as I know it's the only injector razor Gillette ever made and it's been a pain trying to find one....

This one will cause me some serious headache trying to decide on to keep it in the box...or open it up and use it....

Nice pick-up! Don't envy your forthcoming decision. With so many great shaving razors out there, even if this shaves well, so what? You sound like you have a strong collector's streak in you, so keeping it intact would probably be best.

I never knew the gillette injector was actually a 'twinjector'...learned something new there. I figured it was just a regular injector like the schicks and PAL injectors.

my stance is that if I haven't used it ever, or for years, it's time to move on to something else. I'm glad it worked out!

With any luck it'll be featured in a SOTD next week Smile

For the very good price of $24 shipped for the lot.

I don't think this razor would excite a lot of people - but I really liked it and was happy to get it Smile

It's a NIB/NOS black-and-yellow Schick Super II razor model. Made in Holland around, I believe 1972.

Also picked up one of these relatively rare Wilkinson Sword bonded razors with the large sword logo on the handle.
I do have another one just like this one, also NOS/NIB, and...now that I have two I will be "able" to open and use one of them Smile
As it also comes w/ five bonded razor cartridges I felt pretty good spending $9 on it.
