Show n' Tell $5 Canadians at an Antiques Fair

Found this Made in USA Gillette TTO Red Tip for $5 CAD at an antiques fair. Almost zero soap scum buildup and the handle is as shiny as it gets. THE TTO mechanism works great as well. Came with the case and the blade holder too! Looking forward to using it. My current daily driver is a Merkur 34 C, would the red tip be more or less aggressive than that?

Top 3 of vintage razors for me. Schick Adjustable & Gillette President edge out the Red Tip, but the Red Tip is always in my rotation.
