Thank you for the kind words...

Found myself “buffing” a lot. At least I think that’s the term. Wonder if the GSB’s just aren’t cutting it for me. Was a brand new blade this morning.

Cold Water Shave
Fruit of the Earth 100% Aloe Vera
WCS Synthetic
Proraso Red
Ever Ready 1912
GEM PTFE (3)
Thayer's Original Witch Hazel

The GEM blade is much smoother after a few shaves. Close comfortable shave today and no irritation. Cold water shaving with a rigid blade has made such a difference.

I played trumpet but dreamed of playing French horn.
Now I play with razors.
