Absurd early shave this morning but besides that smooth as a baby's bottom in three passes!

Fri 8th Feb

RazoRock Syn 24mm
Arko Soap
Ever Ready- Bathroom Set
Gem S/S [ 1 ]
Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

Today I used what I regard as my best ER 1912, the one from the Bathroom set has the most tactile handle which seems to make the Razor more manoeuvrable. Also, ER seem to have tweaked the head so that modern blades are held more securely, reducing characteristic blade chatter. It is a Razor which Shaves very smoothly and efficiently with feeling threatening, and it is very easy without any problems to get a Top Notch Finish. This is an ideal Razor for anyone who wishes to try out shaving with a Gem Bladed /SE Razor, probably better than its modern counterparts.

A tactile handle indeed, Mike. I was lucky enough to land a Bathroom set a wee while ago. I doubt it had been used, it's that pristine (it still had undisturbed sellotape on the plastic case). Its ‘grippiness' only adds to its quality. A truly great 1912.
