Razor: GEM - Junior (Bar) 1907

Brush: Semogue 1305
Pre-Shave: Innisfree - Green Tea Foam Cleanser
Lather: Stirling Barbershop
Aftershave: Noble Otter - Barrbarr

Raising the bar for Junior
GEM Jr “Bar” razor. This was was GEMs first razor where they moved away from solid wedge blades.
It was designed to showcase their new modern spined SE “Damaskeene” blades.

A very smooth shaver, although it seemed like it didn’t shave the first pass as close as I’m used to. That could also be my imagination, but never fear, it easily took me to a comfortable BBS in three passes.
Where this razor seemed to really excel, was the moustache and entire chin area. I usually have to gnaw away at these areas, but the Junior Bar took them down to the hardwood just as easily as “kiss my hand”!
When I was cleaning up the blade dispenser that came with this razor, I found two unused “Damaskeene” blades, still in their cardboard sleeves, hidden under the spring. Eventually I’ll have a Damaskeene shave with this razor like it was 1906 again.
