Yeah, yeah, do it. Real fun. I use my Gem once in a while. It seems like such a device. And it shaves, too. Of course, be careful.

I had a Gem Junior sitting around for years. To me it looked very unusual, kind of intimidating, certainly outdated, a relic of history. Reading some of the SE posts peaked my curiosity. People actually used these things! With much apprehension, I decided to try it out.
With instructions from B & B members, I found it has a short learning curve. I started out with good shaves. By shave 3 I was getting BBS shaves.
I urge you to give SE shaving a try. My Gem has gone from obscurity to my go to shaver.

I've been using a DE for 6 months now, and slowly feeding my RAD, or trying to resist it maybe..
I started with a 1917 aristocrat, then to a brazillian 40s SS, and next a Blue tip SS.. I've been on the hunt for a SE but the only thing I've found locally is a valet autostrop. On day I'll find a GEM..
