- In this video I compare the entire commonly available Gillette Adjustable line-up to the Rockwell T2.
Model years of my Vintage Gillettes according to datebcodes
Fatboy or 195 Adjustable Date Code E4 1959
Slim Adjustable Date Code J3 1964
Super 84 Date Code S1 1972
Super 109 Date Code S2 1972
Super Adjustable Date Code Z4 1979
I have a slim and it works awesome. I actually run through the settings starting at 5 then move to 9 to get more shaves out of the blades. Feathers work great with this shaver. You can have them replated at razor emporium too
The old Gillette razors (The fat boy and the slim) are way above all what we have today. I don't think it is even close. Also the small touches make a huge different. For example, you can adjust the razor mechanism while butterfly is locked , You have a clicking feedback when switching levels. The shaving experience is something else. The only downside in my opinion are the end tabs which requires an extra carful especially while shaving my head or around the ears.
Great info. Would have enjoyed a shave off comparison too 😂. I have a T2 and 6C was looking at a slim adjustable or 109 black beauty.
If you like the T2 I think you'll like the Slim Adjustable or Super Adjustable.
