Open Comb MicroMatic / GEM carbon-steel (1)
Surprised myself with an excellent shave. Didn't expect it from this blade. I still got some irritation in some problem areas on my neck.
Gem MMOC with a Gem blade (4 shaves on it). 4 passes (normal for me) followed with alum and then balm.
I believe I just achieved my first full-on BBS. I can rub my fingers in circles all over my face and neck with no scritch at all! The alum didn't sting and I have no irritation. Simply amazing shave.
