I agree Dave, Schick band razor is better than the Gillette, although the latter were included in the kit by NASA for the moon landing boys but maybe Gillette offered to pay more than Schick for the privilege? Also, apparently some folk got 100 shaves out of a Techmatic cartridge, but I’m guessing from your experience here you might find that a bit of stretchMonday October 31, 2022

B. - Lovely Semogue, I've never seen that style of handle previously - the Caravela is a mixed badger/boar knot. Is that correct? - I.Semogue Caravela 2011 LE
I think it was the original Badger/Boar from Semogue. I was a LE of 100 pieces produced for a Spanish and a Portugese Shaving Foum collaboration. The general release of the SOC 2012 SE had a slightly less dense version of the knot and was more widely available.B. - Lovely Semogue, I've never seen that style of handle previously - the Caravela is a mixed badger/boar knot.
