What's new

hello, Im new hear. question on gems and some stuff to mention.

hello, to all the wet shavers here. I have been spending a fortune on buying a 12 razor rotation. I became addicted to razors, starting when my grandfather left me his, and really became a problem when I grew a beard for the first time in my life, last winter.
My question is there any significance to the name of the gem junior in compaired to just a gem, in the 1912 model? I also wanted to make a coment on the gem industrial blades. I can not see how anyone likes those things. I can see the big difference on the edge in compared to a regular gem shaving blade, just by looking at it. I dont use them anymore, too many nicks. those things took all the joy out of shaveing for me. I felt like I was being to frugal to buy a regular blade. I used a micromatic for twenty years, starting at age 16 so I know how to use a single edge razor.
One last , but most mention. I walked into an antique shop and bought a double ring with out a case in nice black tarnished condition for 30 bucks, Yesterday! lucky or what. Any one know what to use on cleaning it? thanks and its nice to be here.
 
yea that makes sense, thanks for the info. I am new to forums altogether, so its difficult to learn the system here, you have to excuss me.
