Matt, I was going to buy myself one Gillette Techmatic razor but I just don't remember why I didn't buy one.! But in 1969/70 when I was in College then I bought myself one Gillette G2 Made in Germany twin blade cartridge razor with the plastic case which I have today still in mint condition and also use it randomly. But the blade keeps on sliding from the position while shaving. So mostly I use Gillette Fusion5 power razor. That gives great shaves.

Wow. What an amazing piece of Gillette history. I think owning a prototype is even cooler than having a production one!

So from being around the Akron area a couple of hints for you might be the fact that at one time there were about 10 rubber tire companies around the area, and of course the biggest is Goodyear. There was alot of VERY affluential people who called Akron home. Also there were steel mills in the area including Timken, the Timken Roller Bearings. So I guess it wouldn't surprise me to test out a new razor in an area that would have money to spend

They were the guys back then ,no computers to work out the technology needed for the functions of these razors to work great, just great technicians and engineers.

Awesome video Matt, you should definitely be a curator at a Gillette museum, the history behind these razors is fascinating, well done;)

Nice, mild shave 😁 ... Very easy to see why it failed commercially, though; the design was definitely over-thought. It is a thing of beauty in the hand ... absolutely love it. Thanks for the video, Matt ... Nice surprise in my inbox this morning 👍🏻
