To the best of my knowledge none but I make some adapter screws that allow all ASR razors that I know of with removable handles to work with the most common female thread used in razor handles. There may be some obscure ASR razors they won't work with but I haven't seen it.
Thanks for the info! I'll definitely keep you in mind as I'm looking to expand my Gem and Ever-Ready lineup!
Picked this little Gem at a flea market for $3 today. Cleaned up nicely! Anyone know what blade bank should go with it? Sent from my SM-G977U using Tapatalk
It would be the Push-Pak dispenser in it, seen below. I think towards the end of life for this model, it was just a brown cardboard box packet containing 5 blades.
Looks like a nice 1st Generation(1950-52) Featherweight deluxe, one of my favorites to use of a lot of different Gem razors( tame mid range). You got a good deal, use new blades if possible and not hardware store types. They should be 3 facet type and I like the Gem Personna SS PTFE. I live up north in Canada and to get them locally is not going to happen so I bought mine from Connaught shaving UK. Takes 2 - 3 weeks, I know your itching to use it and might be able to buy some on Amazon. https://connaughtshaving.com/gemss.html Enjoy!
Just remembered I actually have one. I will get it in the mail to you this week. Still has 6 original blades in it, so you can have a good shave with an original blade for that Gem Featherweight razor!
Thanks, I've got a bullet tip and a coyote 1912s I believe, and bought a package of gem blades on Amazon. I didn't take much note of the specs, I was just happy to see the same logo and bought them. Some shaves are better than others with them though.
I have a razor in this box... It isn't a G-Bar... It's an Ever Ready 1912 as you say. @Screwtape generously traded it with me and believed it to be NOS - I'll post a photo later.
Nice . Maybe you can forward photos to Waits for an updated edition. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk
Gem was still offering razors in stores as of 1994. They still sent razors to those who sent in $1 after 2000.
Hi, I just wanted to stop in and wave. I think I’m gonna be going back to my single edge roots for a while. I used an OCMM a little over a year when I started wet shaving. I moved on to double edge, but as of this morning, I’m gonna head back in the other direction a little while.
Should share your shave over at Micromatic Monday, any ASR razor that holds a Gem blade is welcome. https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/micromatic-monday.63258/page-35
