    Wow - mind blown is an understatement. I just read all of the posts and have to say I am blown away. I’m still a Schick head at heart even though I shave pretty much exclusively with straights these days. Years ago I saw some pics and posts about a prototype adjustable GEM that @HoosierTrooper had come across and I thought that was wild. But this, this is beyond words. :shocked029:

    Thanks Karl! I probably would have never tried to shave with most of them but I'm doing this EDRIO (every darn razor I own) challenge, so there they are.

    Very close and comfortable shave with a new blade today after playing a round of golf... MUCH better for my second shave with the SS Colonial General. I just received a second-hand brass Karve razor in the mail too but I want to keep using the General. Decisions, decisions . Regardless, the General is already feeling like a keeper . Happy upcoming Thursday all!

    Not sure why, but I love this pic. I think it's because it resonates with my layout-sensibilities. A type of ordering and positioning that aligns with what I would do. The mug in the middle being such a colorful piece is genius.

    Williams / Clubman. Screams classic shave. Boar brush augments the classic appeal. Great shave.

    I really need to find a reason to use my Rex Ambassador. It's been a while since I reached for it.
