    I’ve tried 6 different GEM style blades. The stainless PTFE coated have been the only ones that I’ve enjoyed consistently. I haven’t tried the CVS carbon. Is it a Personna/GEM rebrand? I have used some unbranded GEM style blades I bought at Piggly Wiggly though. Not sure if they’re carbon or stainless, but they were ok.

    The blades pictured below are sold at a local gas station. I haven’t bought them though and I’m not so sure folks are using them for shaving...

    Lol! Thanks for the positive words, Joe! However, I am just happy that I am back to the gym with a new routine.

    Awesome!
    True story, Charlie- A girl I was in high school with passed her road test, went inside for the licence photo and paperwork, jumped in her car and in her excitement peeled out of the parking lot at high speed and smoked the driving instructor who was walking to lunch. After flying across the hood and spilling into the ditch, he dusted himself off to haul her back inside to yank her new licence from her...a legendary, true story in my grad class back in the day.

    I’m with ya, Bill. I can’t think of a shaving club that is less likely to see my shadow than an Excalibur club...

    G7DC Shave # 3
    DE Shave # 285

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Merkur 37c Slant
    Blade: Treet Classic
    Brush: Silver Blue
    Lather: Stirling Spice
    Aftershave: B & M Reserve Spice
    Additional Care:
    Barbero Alum Block
    Stirling Tea Tree Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    A very nice, cool late summer morning with an autumn feel. Perfect scent to help assist going through my day of hybrid mania.

The final shave with the Treet blade, it’s 5th. Regardless of the number, another extremely close shave using the three pass. This morning I was able to dial in the lathering with the boar brush, it was not such a lather hog. Time to get my little man up for school. Have a great day.

    Good morning!

    Amazing shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Just the lightest tickle from the alum.

    Have a great day!
