This is a beautiful and very efficient razor. Nuf said. 

   

There are actually a few more pictures in the July hauls thread and a few more of my thoughts on it.

I did enjoy that, i do like an Injector blade in the MicroMatic's, so smooth.
It is also nice and sunny this morning.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all

Williams Wednesday's Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Bunny  B-400 by Tom
TNNSER V1 by Tom
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with Bunny B-400 Badger Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the TNNSER V1 Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thanks Jim,
 Yes its the only one i have seen, i was so lucky to pick up this set, it still has a few of the 
original GEM blades, although i have not tried a one in it. 
I do like this razor, it does have a tiny scratch on the top cap about 3mm long which is not bad for its age. I have no idea when this was made though, the case looks very Art Deco.
