    Neglected the RR GC Jaws for a bit. It delivered a stunningly awesome shave. Better than what I had remembered from previous uses. Maybe it wants to be used more frequently in my shave rotation? Well, after today’s shave, it’s making a strong case that can’t be ignored. A wonderful day and shaves to all...​

    START Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #340
    Gem Micromatic OC No Bumps
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Florida Water

    Today is Day 11 of SEptember. Up for the challenge today is my Gem Micromatic OC with No Bumps.

    The START Shave Cream face-lathered well with Jayaruh #340 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Micromatic OC No Bumps razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Was fortunate to get the Katana head during a sale at Ali Express for less than £5 delivered. 3 weeks to get here.
    I coupled it with an Aluminium General handle and a Euromax blade. It gave a lovely smooth shave.
    Suitably impressed, and looking forward to future shaves. Definitely a keeper.
