I have an old deck of Bicycle playing cards with a coupon for a free Schick for only 25 cents postage printed on the side of the box.

Does it have an expiration date?
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

Just a de-spining of the Gem and maybe a snip of the back corners if they catch. I can't remember but it should be evident when you load it. Congratsulations !

Nice acquisitions! The Autostrop is such an interesting looking razor and appears to be in great condition. Below is a thread about the using a Gem blade, compliments of Mr. Google!

@tony'schin, cool acquisitions. I didn't know there was a slant that took injector blades.

Yeah i read through Pauls post (a fellow TSR member), it seems though, the GEM maybe a little short, not sure, i will have a play once it arrives.
Thanks for your comments chaps.

They get a good write up across the road, i saw it for a good price, therefore, the collection expanded a bit more. 
EDIT:- The head "positions" the AC blade in a "slant" positon, rather than twisting it, apparently.

Ah. Thank you for the clarification. I didn't look closely enough. I have a few AC format razors but personally prefer the width of injector blades.
