I found this Gillette New long comb at an antique store today. It cleaned up really nice. Just had my first shave with it and am pretty impressed. It was the first time I have been able to active a 3 pass BBS shave without having to do any touchups afterward.
A rookies first shave with an open comb.

The funny part is after the first pass there were parts of my face that I could not feel the razor cutting anything on the 2nd and 3rd pass no matter what angle I tried.
Very cool. Enjoy.

Great score and congrats on the shave.
I got an open comb razor (RazoRock OLD Type) for my son because he often goes days or weeks between shaves.
He's impressed at how easy it is to rinse out.

Yes! Please join us, OP!
Buffing with an OC razor is a beautiful thing with how the teeth release the lather for the following forward stroke again.
Try skipping your XTG pass, you might be surprised.

Excellent score! And excellent shave!
Nice. As much as Gillette kind of sucks nowdays, their vintage stuff is really awesome.
