    Yesterday was a holiday here in the States so I dug out the Menthol Williams out of storage for Menthol Monday. I added four drops of M Bomb to the Williams. That gave the Williams a good kick of menthol. I did three pass that left me with a good shave. Now is when I wish I had my bathroom done. The blade is at a point that it could benefit from a stropping.

  4. 1/15/18 - GEM Junior Bar / Lather Catcher - 1900/01
    I have another GEM Junior that does not have the fancy writing in the back it just says GEM Junior in the bottom (not covering the entire back), now this GEM looks the same, but this one shaves better. I cant describe how great the shave was - blade just fit in snug and tight like I purchased the Razor at a local Apothecary yesterday. Modern Blade loves it.
    Does anybody know the actual Year this razor would have been sold? I LOVE this Razor! used a PAL Carbon on 2nd shave..

  15. I won this for 36 dollars delievered - came with the blade hodling extension and a strop (seems good shape) - the box was crap and getting tossed (i dont care about boxes unless its a NOS situation). I dont have any good wedges also never stroped or honed anything (unless u count a pocket knife)... i wish i could buy a nice wedge somewhere --

  19. You will find one. That is a good price for that razor. We think the same on boxes. If its nice I use it if not it's not a heart breaker for me.

    Razor: LC 1902 Star
    Blade: CV Heljestrand wedge
    Brush: B-400
    Soap: Tabac
    AS: Tabac

    I find my Star to be the most mild of my wedge razors. It gives an absolute irritation free shave. CCS is the best I expect from this.

    The coolest thing is I can do a full pass and don’t have to rinse it out.
