The item is a vintage Gillette Techmatic Adjustable Razor Band Cartridge in its original blister packaging. This product was a unique shaving system introduced in the mid-1960s that used a continuous “ribbon” of steel instead of individual blades.
- Mechanism: The Techmatic utilized a cartridge containing a long, thin band of super stainless steel. When one section became dull, the user would turn a lever on the razor handle to advance a fresh shaving edge.
- Specifications: This specific pack contains a cartridge with 10 super stainless steel edges.
- Adjustability: The cartridge itself features an adjustable dial (often labeled LO/HI) that allows the user to control the shaving intensity.
- Era: These were popular in the late 1960s and 1970s before being largely superseded by modern multi-blade cartridge systems.
