    What a wonderful shave this morning. The razor has a sweet spot. If you go to one extreme or the other it won’t shave. I’m thinking this is more mild/medium sort of shaver. It felt awesome and smooth .

    The superior handling and balance of the lightweight (42g) aluminum Gibbs more then makes up for any small efficiency advantage the brass version may posses. Hands down my preferred Gibbs Adjustable.[​IMG]

    Cool. I love samples. I have over 75 samples current that I'm going through. Takes so much time to evaluate scents.

    That razor is amazing and even more amazing is the condition of the original box it stays in.

    Thanks! Love the Bois du Portugal scent. I had to put together a worthy set for it.

    Thank you Tommy. It's one of my favorites and because I have this one, I have been able to forget about getting a Varlet.

    I don't do anything special. I do clean and dry it after the shave and give it a belly strop. The video below is me belly stropping a Gem blade. Same idea.
