This is the first tech that I’ve come across with an etched Gillette logo minus the trademark diamond logo etching. The mirror shine top cap shines with subtle blemishes, and the unique Gillette etched logo. The center post threads, medium twin bars, and blade tabs are in great shape. The baseplate is in great condition with subtle blemishes and faint smudges. The handle is in great shape with subtle blemishes on the neck, and nicely detailed spiral knurling. The tip of the neck has a minor gouge (PICS #12-13) but it doesn’t impact functionality of the handle as it properly threads into the top cap, and seats flush against the baseplate. It’s shave ready, and it has been cleaned and sanitized.

The Shipper’s box is in good condition considering it’s old cardboard that’s been handled over the years. It’s been mended in spots and the original verbiage and color is quite nice. Completing the set is a box of Gillette Super Stainless steel blades.
