RE: SOTD - May 2024 - GAW9576 - 05-08-2024 This was an absolutely spectacular shave. Both razors performed exceptionally, the lather was glorious, the brush is superb, the copper bowl is always a pleasure to use and the aftershave is phenomenal. I've wanted both of these razors for 10+ years. It was awesome to finally add them to my collection and to get to shave with them both for the first time. The adapter I made for the Torrey worked perfectly.

Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Techmatic Razor and the Techmatic Band blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... RE: SOTD - May 2024 - Anchovie666 - 05-09-2024 Thursday Morning Shave Experimentation Came across a post on B&B yesterday about using a modified SHADE (kind of) in a GEM Jr. So in the name of Science I felt obliged to attempt it. It actually worked beautifully. The real question we need to ask is just because you can - why should you?

It's a better shave than some of my actual Injectors. Also getting to like the Taconic Lime - it's a glycerine puck and I just used it like a shave stick. Rubbed it on the face and BAM the little Rubberset whipped up a great face lather.
