Jeff, hope the new "weapons" treat you well!
The temptation was just too much to resist. Last night I loaded up the G-bar with a Gem blade that had 2-3 shaves on it. It worked great! I'm still impressed at how all of these SE razors seem to be better at beard reduction, yet more comfortable than my DE razors. So far I've tried the 1912, 1924, pushbutton Gem, Gem G-bar, and even the Schick injector. I guess it's the thicker blades or maybe they can attack from a lower angle. Whatever it is, it's cool. They do deserve respect, though, as I've had some rough shaves while honing my technique. But once you get it down, it's just as easy as DE razors.
I have a Schick injector loaded up to try tomorrow, but next week I'll give that Micromatic some attention. I'm interested to see how the open comb on it compares to the G-bar.
Thanks again!
