    How do you find the Blue tip to shave?

    It's very mild, I use it once in a while to give my face a break. I shave every day so once in a while it comes in handy. As mild as it is it still gives me a good shave.

    There are some great Gillettes in this thread. I have been on a SE kick since last November. I will eventually get around to a Gillette shave Monday with my Techmatic. I did a run with some AutoStrops and Valets. The Valet was the single edge division of Gillette.

    After a year of looking, watching, passing, and waiting to find and ideal sample, it arrived yesterday.
    It shaved heavier than my Single Rings and Pocket Editions. It “feels” heavier than my Big Fellow too. I’ll weigh it tomorrow, but it’s a keeper!

    Razor: Gillette Bulldog 1920
    Blade: Gillette 7 C’Clock Super Stainless Green
    Brush: Unknown Smooth Silver w/16mm TGN Finest
    Pre-Shave: Georgetown Pottery G12 Scuttle
    Lather: Stirling Deep Blue Sea
    Aftershave: Stirling Deep Blue Sea Splash
    Additional Care:
    Chanel Bleu de Chanel EDP

    Now I have to ask myself, dare I look for a Silver one? Gold?
