Description
For those who prefer a long handle and close shave, look no further than the Gillette 1958 Psycho / Lock-Type Fat Handle Tech DE Safety Razor. These shavers are known as some of the most rare that Gillette ever crafted for good reason.
This razor comes with an aftermarket key that was made by a previous owner. It works well, but its not the original.
This razor was made especially for Mental Hospitals or Prisons where the inmate would not be granted access to a razor blade. The guard would come around and use the key to unlock the top cap so that a blade could be inserted into place before use by the inmate.
This beautiful razor has been carefully restored, buffed/polished, ultra-sonically cleaned, and sanitized bringing it to Shave Ready condition for your shaving pleasure!
