I want to rate the shave as "Horrible", but first the razor has to shave, it did not. It knocked down lather but only a few dozen whiskers. It was loaded with a SE blade made by GEM, but I think that the blade may have been made for something other than shaving. I going to get a few vintage packs on Ebay next month & give it a try again.
As usual the Gillette adjustable, loaded with a Shark, finished the job just fine.
Thank you for looking,
Hirlau

The edge on this razor has developed a bit of a bite, I guess that it is time to give it a couple of passes on a finisher. Still a really close shave. Looking forward to a week of great pictures :)

Very satisfying shave this morning, I must say that my technique is really good these days (if I MUST say so myself). After 2.306306 years shaving with a straight (according to Excel) I really am finding out new stuff. These days I sweep across my cheek towards the center of my face, which means the first pass at that point is pretty much ATG, because that's the way the hair grows. I’m also not afraid to go over the same spot multiple times even without cream after the first stroke.
After work I mowed the back lawn and then opened the parcel containing my new Joseph Elliot Razor.
Carl
GREAT photo, love the balance and that green. I'll have to Google that soap or cream...Quote:

It is very inexpensive and still works!
Hmmm, sounds it would match my new Myrosol Aqua de Limón???Quote:
