This a rare nickel plated Gillette Toggle lever based adjustable razor. It was only manufactured fourth quarter of 1960 (F-4). This type razor is not really chrome but is called that to distinguish it from the D-1/F-4 Standard Toggle which is gold plated. The adjustment dial is very reminiscent of the adjuster on the F-4 Bottom Dial Adjustable Gillette safety razor. The warranty card is serialized. The original set calls for a 20 pack of Blue Blades sealed in cellophane. However, there are a few examples of NOS sets that are kitted with a 10 pack of Super Blue Blades cellophane wrapped with the "Easy Does It" instruction sheet. The shipper for all the sets calls for a 20 pack of Blue Blades. That is, when they started kitting Super Blue blades with this set they did not update the printing on the shipper. This razor weighs 86 grams
