    Thanks Gary. This and my Canadian Bostonian are my favorite open combs. Great weight and balance.............

    Good Sunday morning, up early today and thought I had better get the shave going.
    I'm shaving with a GEM SE this morning and it's another great shave.
    Pre-shave : shower & Aloe Vera gel
    Razor: Gem Micromatic open comb
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (6)
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft
    Soap: Taylor of old bond street Sandal wood
    Post shave: Alum + cold water rinse (still testing MMOC for quality of shave= excellent feedback )
    Post shave: Proraso Red sandal wood + witch hazel
    Sunday shave DEC 23-2018 (2).jpg


    The GEM mmoc is a fine mid range razor and will give solid great results with a good technique & along with a NEW Gem PTFE SS blade.

    The soap and the EdP (Loris E-31 == Bvlgari Black) are a nice combination, IMHO.

    Fatip mk1 plate with Fine Marvel cap. Smoother than stock mk1 plus of course allowing for handle swappage . More efficient than the SC but still used the SE1 for finishing the single pass head shave portion not the show.[​IMG][​IMG]
