I recently scored a gillette blue tip at an antique fair along with five other razors. After trying the other five, I deceided to try the blue tip. I didn't expect much since my go to razors are a slant and a gem. Loaded it with a derby and gave it a go. It's such a mild razor that it's hard not to enjoy it. The shave was too easy and took no thought. After three passes it felt pretty good.
It has been a week and I really like this razor. I get no razor burn. I don't even get a sting from the witch hazel. The shave isn't quite as close as with a slant or gem, but it is still quite enjoyable. It is definitely going into my regular rotation.
