Lately I've been using my new to me, GEM Damaskeene razor. First I tried the Treet blades, but didn't like them much. I've been using the GEM SS blades and it is working much better for me. Shaves like butter. So easy, I can't believe it. Still perfecting the upper lip shave though. Saw an old brochure for these razors on how to shave the upper lip and it's working pretty well.

The Damaskeene is a fantastic razor. If you could post a picture of that old advertisement I'm sure many of us would enjoy it.
