    Razor: Gem Clog Pruf(Peerless model 17nib SB) Mfg 1945, excellent mid range, smooth & comfortable, excellent design & built to last.
    Blade: Kai Protouch modified (2) Excellent blade, sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity, a little pricey compared to Gem SS PTFE blade. Gem coated tends to have better longevity from my experience but the Protouch is a smoother shave for the first couple of shaves IMO. Gem coated blades will shave closer because of its proven sharpness, Kai Protouch reaches a nice shave regardless.
    Soap: Cyril R Salter Indian Sandal wood, nice sandal wood scent with great lather qualities.
    Brush: Yaqi Aquarius 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, good scrub + great lather painter. Seems like Yaqi tried to imitate a 2 band badger feel IMO. Great brush with a lot of effort to jam the handle with sea setting articles.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Ogallala Bayrum with Sandalwood + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= [​IMG] Excellent shave with my Gem Clog Pruf with a Kai Protouch modified.

    This razor is fierce! The handle isnt original but better than the dinky plastic one that came with it. The razor is aggressive, and it wants to snag anything and everything. If you happen to have a skin tag… itll snag it… Got a mole your fond of? It’ll snag it… you know that pesky upper lip ?… yup it’ll snag it too. Lol this thing gives no cares about you or anything u put in front of it, afterall its russian.[​IMG]

    I got bbgs.. yes baby butt glass smooth and i usually hate uber aggressive razors and get rid of them as fast as i get them but this razor is different. I can shave with it but carefully.
