I must admit, I've never felt the need to shim a blade for my 1912s. It's difficult, for me, to see how it would improve the results I get each time. I only shimmed once, with a 1914; as the Gem was a bit loose. It didn't provide a result anything like an unshimmed Gem with a 1912, 1924 etc. Still, mileage and all that.View attachment 34615
...second week with the ER1912, this time with a shimmed blade. I can not say at the moment that I prefer the 1912 with a shimmed blade but I am still getting smooth, close shaves. Loving Omega's inexpensive little boars at the moment, just superb with Cella. Finished off with some Floid Aftershave...all is good...
