Love the Bullet Tip (Guiding Eye). It is my birth year Gem. Introduced in 1947.

Tabac Tuesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #443 Synthetic
TNNSER V.1
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #443 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the TNNSER V.1 Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

You have a great variety of MicroMatics, David. I have one like that, too.
