I have a GEM Damaskeene razor that was my great-grandfather's. My grandma kept everything and now I have it. That is her handwriting noting it was her Dad's razor - Horace.
Here is what I don't know. I have read of the Damaskeene razor but this one - it just says on the inside to buy Damaskeene blades. Does that make it a "Damaskeene" razor? If so, is there really any difference between this and the same razor that does not say to buy the Damaskeene blades?
I had an amazing shave with it just this morning for the first time. Surprisingly good! But how would a similar one match up, not Damaskeene?
