Thumbs down British really is best!

Free, but not the best and definately not British. I remember Gillette shut down their British factories a few years back with the loss of a shed load of jobs and moved production to easten Europe.


If you want a top wet shave, buy a Wilkinson Sword Quattro and use Nivea for men shaving gel

P.S. Wilkinson Sword headoffice in High Wycombe will be getting a free Gillette razor shortly!

I always wanted a Wilkinson Sword when I was a young lad. Not the razor, the sword.

Razors are ridiculous now, batery operated, 5 blades, fit birds in ferraris,blah,blah,blah, what a load of boswelox

A freebie at last - razors are getting more and more expensive.

Girls "monthly things" are VAT exempt so razors should be for us!!!

I swear I read something about the history of the razor that said the disposable blade was mainly designed to create extra revenue as fixed blades lasted for ever and could be resharpened.

I pay about a fiver for 10 sensor excel. I think 8 mach 3 jobbies are over £12. Ridiculous. 10 yrs from now it will be speed of sound tri-turbo dual-nitrous supercharged titanium with diamond etched blades.

Cheers fella

Free razor - I should be able to get the blades for them cheap soon too - the company I work for bought Gillette a couple of months back (no sign of any FREE razors like!). We're just getting the work through now, loads of Gillette people on sight - maybe i'll go thank them for my free one!

True, but, if you stop using razors then you look scruffy.....if we stopped using girly things, well, I won't go any further.....

Have you ever seen the mess when a man cuts himself with a razor??

The thing never stops bleeding add water to the mix and you look like someone who has just been beheaded!

Therefore ............ razors should be VAT Free!!

Lessening your alcohol intake may assist Pete - those morning shakes must affect you badly.
