Great shave, Mark. I didn't know Superdrug sold their own blades. Clearly the Gillette razor is the star of the show and if I wasn't happy with my own humble collection I'd add the Executive Adjustable to my wish list.

Lovely shave. And your right about the vintage gillettes. My 56 superspeed gives my the best smoothest shave. great shave again. Have a great week😊

Nice combo shave today, the history of the Erskine 's shaving brush original made from 1896 to 1957 , the color was red on top with white 16mm horse hair which I have one, awesome history on this, 🪒have a wonderful day eh 💈

Hey Mark! I purchased a New Old Stock Gillette Executive with case and unused blade dispenser for just $90 +$9 shipping on ebay 2 years ago! I found another one used for $67! They are fabulous razors! Thanks for reviewing yours! JimG

Fantastic products Mark. Very envious.of your razor D3 is my birthday September 1958. Love the brush too. I hope your mam is doing ok Have a good weekend Atb Paul

Hi Mark- Great shave; thank you! Your Executive is certainly a fantastic razor and it was great seeing how much you enjoyed the shave. The knot on the brush was also a stand-out. Hoping you a have good weekend ahead and best regards to Mom, as well. Take good care, my friend!

This shave was permeated with class all the way through, but for me that beautiful brush was the stand out. Wishing you and your mum good health and a great weekend.

Superb razor Mark. MWF is still a battle for me.

Wasn't Nathan the gentleman behind Wolf Whiskers? If so, he is indeed making brushes again.

Great gear and a fantastic shave Mark. MWF is the only soap my wife uses, she just loves the lanolin! Enjoy your weekend sir.

I have a wood handle from apshaveco with a g8 max backbone knot from Pete Hendrix it’s fantastic and I have a second apshaveco brush on the way as well a 24mm pure bliss knot in the merit vintage cream and wine handle. Love the vintage handles

I have one and have had it for years.

Excellent shave and commentary on the Gillette Executive Adjustable Mark, appreciate the vintage razors you include in your shaves.

now that was a cracking shave mate . wow what a razor great buy and looks in excellent condition. yes indeed can see were PAA got there inspiration for there brush👍

Nice shave Mark! Again, BEAUTIFUL Executive! 🤩👌 And it's original condition, really great find! 😎👍Your display case must be getting pretty full by now 😀 Have a good one! Steve

Hi Mark, very nice shave and love the gold razor! I enjoy woolfat from time to time and find it always gives a good lather. May have to keep an eye out for that razor! Take care and best wishes Andy

Nice brush! Glad you are still using it. 😁👍🏼 The knot i put in it is a 21mm Silver Tip Badger. Also, it is 2 part epoxied into the handle. If you ever want to remove that knot, you have to be careful because there is also a couple American Nickle coins in the handle i did for height of the knot. I probably should've used plastic or something else, but that was the first brush I ever re-knotted and restored so I didn't know what I was doing.

Hey Mark! Great shave with some terrific vintage gear. I was about 5 years old when your razor was marketed and I was remembering how we watched Sputnik go overhead at night and were so worried that the Russians were ahead of us. I was thinking surely you were mistaken about Eisenhower broadcasting by satellite in '58 - but you have it exactly right. I didn't realize how close behind the Russians we were in getting our own satellite up. Funny how strongly that stuck in my memory seeing Sputnik go by at night in '57 and worrying about the Russians.

Greetings Mark, and I pray you are well. This is a most enjoyable video for me. As you know, while I believe there are many very fine razors out there, that beautiful and do a marvelous job, but for me, the Gillette Adjustable Razor are my hands down favorites. These Razor with the Personna Blades, give me unsurpassed shaves. As I have mentioned to you before… I have a Gillette Fat Boy (1959) that was my grandfather’s, and a Gillette Slim (1966) razor that were my Father’s, and those will always be my favorite razors. I also have 3 other Gillette Slims, and 1960 (my birth year) my wife got me for my birthday three years ago, a completely revamped razor from Razor Emporium. For me, those are will always be my most precious razors because of their sentimental significance to me, but wow, the Gillette Executive is unsurpassed in beauty, taking the world’s best razor (in my opinion), and giving it a gold plating, creating a stunningly beautiful piece of mechanical art. I do hope to get one of these razor in the near future. In the meantime, I will enjoy watching you shave with your Gillette Executive razors, and I’ll enjoy a Cuppa while watching. Aho! 🫖☕️🇬🇧 All my best wishes Mark…

Great shave. Love the razor. I will keep an eye out for a good deal on one. Have a great weekend. 👍

Bravo Mark; certainly a wonderful, first class experience...spectacular razor. Please allow me to begin by apologizing, i.e., I do see most of your videos or at least significant parts of each; however, I am often in somewhat of a rush and oftentimes fail to sign in order to make a comment, etc. I will work to do better going forward. I am pleased to see you looking well and suffice it to say, your smile at the end of the video speaks volumes...well done! By the way (BTW), our trip to the UK was terrific, filled with very friendly people and beautiful scenery. I am sorry that we could not get closer to Torquay; perhaps, on the next visit we will be able to shake hands and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea together. You are a good guy for sure. As always, with my compliments and kindest personal regards, Charles K. P.S. My best to your sister and mom.

Great shave with a fantastic razor Mark.

Fantastic razor and shave Mark!

It looked fantastic too !!!

I don't have the adjustable version of the Aristocrat, but my nonadjustable model is a very smooth razor. I classify it as a "one and done" razor for those who only want a single traditional DE razor. But, of course, I fell down the rabbit hole of collecting a long time ago. I have the Fatboy and subsequent Adjustables to keep it company.😅

Hi Mark, great review! How would you compare the shave to the British-made Aristocrat non-adjustable razors from the same era?
