NEW King C. Gillette RAZOR

Post by Shave4Fun »

If this has already been posted here, LMK.

Has anyone tried the King C. Gillette three-piece razor from Walgreens?
I've seen some reviews on YouTube but was wondering if any here have tried it out?

Best,
Roger

It just a very generic head and handle that resemble nothing Gillette has ever made in the past.

I saw one at my local Walgreen's the other day. It looks really nice - but I have no sense of where it might have been made. If the box had any clues on it (Germany, Israel, China or Russia) I missed it.

I might pick one up for fun - see what it's like. I did that the other day with a Futur knockoff that was being sold at my local grocery store. It's OK, but nothing to write home about ... and I did find the head on that thing almost too big to shave with in tight spots, like upper chin.

I've used the new King Gilette DE razor blades. They are nice and perfrom just like other Gillette blades made in Russia.
