My recommendation? Always- Mirror Nickel, longest lasting of most Gillette razors over the last 120 years. Outer doors, Guard Edge, Handle End and End caps are Guaranteed Mirror polished, the rest of razor is super polished factory look. Other pieces are polished, but some area’s may not be mirrored due to keeping knurling and other features, lettering crisp.

Recently deep cleaned and replated razors sometimes squeek! Through use, skin oils and shave soap will lubricate all the mechanisms. If you cant wait, use mineral oil.
