After 5 years of searching and being outbid several times, I was finally able to add a Gem Zinn automatic to my collection. This thing is BEAUTIFUL. I'm really looking forward to having with it. The spring seems like it is plenty strong enough to hold a modern Injector blade in place. It also came with a Henkels Rapide blade in a protective carrier which is kind of funny. I don't believe it could be used in this razor. I'm certainly not going to try putting it in. I do have a Rapide so maybe I'll hone it up sometime and give it a try in the Rapide though.
You won't shave with that, your too much in love with that Bunny! Nice razor!

That's almost true. I do absolutely love the Bunny. However when the Personna 74 currently loaded in it dies or reaches 74 shaves I will return to some sort of rotation. The blade is currently at 68 shaves so it's not far off.

Just a few more shaves till I hit my goal with the Bunny V2.2 and Personna 74. Then I will try this razor and a few others I've acquired out. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this one shaves.
