I've had my first ever shave with a single edge tonight - a Gem Micromatic Clog-pruf picked up off ebay earlier in the week. The shave was average I think, it gave me a couple of small nibbles, but overall nothing to dramatic. The finish wasn't anywhere near as close as I can get with an EJ89 but, given that it's such a different beast, I'm not unhappy with my first experience.
However, I have a conundrum... how do you manage to shave WTG on the top lip?! The head was simply too big to fit without angling the blade almost horizontally and incurring a fair amount of scrape-age.
Finally - anyone who has one of these, what blades do you find best with this type of razor? (indeed, are any available other than the Gem blades at Connaught?)
Cheers
