    Razor: Gem Clog Pruf (Peerless model 17 nib safety bar)-MFG 1945, excellent mid range.
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (10) excellent blade for longevity, very sharp, smooths out nicely, predictable.
    Soap: Razorock Irish Country side- mild scent with excellent lather quality properties.
    Brush: Yaqi Rainbow brown whiskers 26 mm, excellent lather creator with cloud like soft tips.
    Pre shave: Brush wash my whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of Aloe Vera gel.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pick ups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Razorock or I.B Amici with witch hazel + a dollop of balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] Excellent shave with my GEM MMCP with a Gem blade.

    Stoll Chrome Steel, Gem stainless ptfe blade, shave 6
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    First I decided to skip the mk3 Gem Contour since I've already shaved it against the mk2 in the past and can say they are the same so I decided to use this previously unused by me razor. The Wilbert Cutlery Co. produced house brands for Sears and Roebucks with Stoll being one of them. Though provided by Wilbert Cutlery Co. this razor was actually manufactured by Kampfe Bros and is a rebrand of their Star Cru Steel razors. Also on note the cru steel and rebrands were the first non wedge blade razors produced by Kampfe Bros.

    This razor sort of takes a modern style gem blade, the original blades were thicker and had different spines on them making for a tighter fit. This razor a modern gem blade is loose and moves around easily without a shim. Though not pictured I used an injector blade as a shim to tighten up the grip of the blade by the razor tabs. When shimmed this razor has a lot of blade feel but is not very efficient at all. End result is almost the same as the previous razors I used which were Gem Contour II razors which was close but short of a BBS finish.
