There is a place for the 1912 or '24 even if it's not an everyday razor. IMO a GEM SS blade is just too sharp when fresh out of the wrapper. So I use the fresh blade for 4 shaves in a milder razor to make it better. Then it can go into any other razor. FWIW, other folks strop a fresh GEM SS blade but IMO that just wastes the first few shaves.
Luv2shave, the Shovelhead is my favorite razor. But I don't shave everyday anymore and it was clogging on me, so I put it down and picked up a Clog-Pruf. They are aptly named razors. The cutoffs would need to be very long for it to clog.
