Will do.

5/25/15 - Memorial Day!!
Don't forget the ones who made the ultimate sacrifice!!

Great shave. The Gillette New line is some of the best OC razors they made in my opinion. Smooth and efficient.

This OC razor felt very fitting to use today - 1944 UK WWII issued OC razor.

Very good smooth OC. Merkur #41.

5/27/15 - Gillette SC New

Probably my favorite out of all my OC's.

My MMOC. I really should use this more as I rather enjoy it.

Or the chrome one:

That's what I'm using tomorrow. Haven't tried it yet. Heard it's a biter. Haha
Great looking razors. I'm more of a chrome man myself.

Photo says it all ! a lovely razor and shave today

We're shaving twins today - I also used: OC razor, Fitjar Isrose and Myrsol

I actually don't but one thing that I've noticed, at least with the coated SS Gem blades, is that the first shave is the 'worst' one.
It seems like the blade needs to have one use in it before it, to me gets smooth

Cool. Thanks. I've kind of noticed that the first wasn't a great shave. But, most of my DE's are about the same way. Thanks

And with that razor I bet you get some of the best shaves you have ever had...I. am still kicking myself for getting rid of mine.

I have found that to be true...I found using Teflon coated blades helped with that.

5/28/15 - GEM Micromatic!!!

Not the best shave. It was either the razor or the blade, but it was jumpy and wouldn't cut. Had to pull out the Type G Injector to finish the job.
