Tom, as soon as you said that I figured a little solder and told the wife I may try it. It is missing the safety bar to flip over on it too......The eye rolls have started but I'm used to them  Big Grin

I don't believe it is supposed to have a safety bar like that.

If you compare the 2 in my pic they are identical down to the pin to hold the bar that's missing. Yours is another model with the guides on the sides too. Study the 2 in my pic and compare and you'll see. By the way, Nice Gem you have there Cool

Yes it is supposed to have the bar, you can see the spring for it.

How does the front of a '12 compare? As in replacing the forward section with the front of an old '12. That gives you a good guard and good stops.

Very nice, French I guess. Are you going to hone the wedge or I imagine a Gem would fit easily enough, either way it will be interesting to hear how it shaves.

I will try to get some things and try honing it but yea a Gem is said to fit easily in it. Thanks !

I finally managed to snag an AutoStrop A2!  I also have a B2 and VC1 - 4.

Reading some older post. I am sure you have talked about it but did you keep this one sealed?

So far, yes, but only because I have another Schick O to shave with.
