Interesting razor. I Googled it and was interested to see that the 'plus' and 'minus' relate to aggressiveness. I also noted on another forum a post about the problem with blades that fit. The forum spoke of modifying standard blades...

I got a very nice shave from this GD I have on loan. It looks like it took some work to get it to a state to be honed, but after that, it shaves just as well as any of my other blades. The classic TOBS Shaving Shop scent is a great way to start the week! Have a good one, SOTD Brothers.

Great two pass shave. Runing out the door."We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

Good afternoon, Gentlemen
Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Omega boar
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Scuttle: Robert Becker extra large
Razor: Rodgers, 5/8 wedge, barber's notch, from the Victorian aera.
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: English leather home made splash
Notes: Tonight's shave was nothing short of brilliant. There's a special kind of happiness that eminates from whipping up a pile of MWF lather with a well broken in boar brush. Tonight's suds were moist, warm and plentiful. The old Rodgers was fresh off my Oozuku and as sharp and crisp as you could want. And what better to finish off this shave than a healthy dash of English Leather? A very comfortable and smooth BBS shave.
