    Pre: shower, Nivea face wash
    Razor: GEM Featherweight
    Blade: (?) the ones I got with the razor
    Brush: TGN Finest in olivewood handle
    Soap: Soap Commander Passion
    Post: cold water rinse, Maggard alum, witch hazel, Nivea cooling after shave balm, The Veg

    Right as my computer crashed I went and took my shower and prepared for my fist shave with the GEM. It's an interesting razor and head heavy but I muttled through to an almost BBS shave. I got really close to it but missed it by a few hairs, LOL.. First pass WTG saw really good beard reduction. Second pass XTG saw even better and was looking forward to the third pass. Third pass was ATG and I almost caught the baby, tried a little clean up and just couldn't quite catch it without irritation. So I stopped before that and went on to my post routine and called it good. I'm pleased with my shave tonight, first time using this type of razor and this type of blade, I guess technique sometimes can prove to trump what you use. except in poor Neal's case with those pesky Tiger blades, ROFL :happy097: :rofl:

    I know this is a little off topic but I just found a deal on GSB on ebay and wanted to share. 100 GSB blades for $14.06 w/free SHIPPING, click here!

    I don't get anything out of this just wanted to share for all you who like GSB blades.

    I was just covering myself! It was too good a price to not let people know about it. I haven't seen GSB's that low of price before.

    Wow, I spend a few hours away from the house and the Shenanigans are in full sail! I wouldn't want to be the one to page Queen of Blades because @BearCWY got this started...

    I withdraw my suggestion that I didn't make. Joe @BearCWY is a Fine Well Known Member. I hope that reduces the Shenanigan Quotient.
