Gillette is a company with a long history making shaving supplies. Their initial mission was creating safety razors, and they created great product that people still buy used and restore to this day. Today, a single safety razor is listed on their product page[1].
Consumer-impact summary
Well built safety razors are great from a consumer viewpoint. They are likely to outlive their users, they are easy to maintain, and razor blades can be bought from a big market with healthy competition. In 1964, Gillette started developing their first cartridge razor, featuring a plastic cartridge containing two razor blades[2]. This was the start of what might be the earliest example of what is referred to as "two-part pricing"[3].
