I’ve been on something of a traditional wet shaving journey for the better part of a decade, and have been through a range of DE and SE razors during that time. I’ve now reached a bit of a standstill.
I wear a beard and so shave above and below the beard only, as well as shaving my head. I have settled on a GEM Jewel razor with custom handle to give it a bit of heft (and occasionally try other SE (including other GEM razors) and DE razors but none perform as well for me as the Jewel).
I’m now thinking that I’d like to try a new razor and would welcome thoughts from the community. Can anyone recommend a GEM style SE razor that might supplant the Jewel as my ‘go-to’ tool?
[one factor which i find to be a real issue with head shaving is clogging of the razor beneath the blade, requiring the razor to be opened in order to flush the hair a few times during the first pass]
