I bought a Gillette Old Type razor that had a handle that was cracked. This replacement is just perfect - very high quality.

I ordered a few variants of this handle for my old Gillette razors, all of which had cracked handles thanks to the historical issue we all know about. As far as similarity to the original in appearance, the only difference I noticed was that the knurling on the handle is better/more aggressive than the original handles. The handle also weighs more than the originals. Other than that, it looks the same and I'm very pleased with the product(s).

I bought this handle to replace the vintage Gillette handle that came in a service set I bought since it had cracks, and it does the job excellently in replacing it. The handle feels fantastic, and it's worth having.

I came to you looking to date a razor and blades and I’ve been amazed. I’m still here an hour later. Fascinating info and so well presented with facts and charts. I can’t begin to thank you enough. I can now positively ID when the blade was made (2nd quarter of 1943) and can identify the razor in a range of 1939-1947. I am so very grateful. Was going to sell the razor.. now I am intrigued. Thank you so much.
