    Gary! Just the man I need to talk to.
    I've got an option on a US made Gillette OC DE. I see you extolling the virtues of the Flat Bottoms. Take a look at this photo and tell me if this is one, and how you rate the shaves, please?

    I've got and enjoy what I've identified as a NEW LC, but this is slightly different.

    Blair - I don't know if you've shared - what part of Louisiana? I'm Lake Charles born, lived in New Iberia & Slidell.
    Thanks Andrew! I'm enjoying the shavette. The cutting & hauling fallen trees less so but it needs doing.
    Thanks Joe! If this clone wasn't so inexpensive I'd have gotten around to one of the other makers eventually. Open blades are just so much fun to learn.

    the other cool part is you can use any handle you want with your 3 piece version.

    Rick, open blade shaving is definitely cool! It's great to hear you are enjoying it as much as I.

    The weather was crappy here this morning, so back inside. I busted out the Rose of Bulgaria for the first time today. Now this one's a keeper, a typical eastern European cream. 3.5 passes with the Ralf Aust, one tiny weeper, no irritation. Followed by this ancient Catie's Bubbles post shave toner. I'll take it.

    I've already got it! Part of The Traveling Box and it's headed back to the start when I get through pawing through the goodies. Might have a Cooper 3pc, too. Several older Gillette 3 piece DE to choose, but I'm not in DE-RAD right now.
