Well, it was yesterday actually. Due to latent RAD while boxing up some stuff for the Sue Auction, I just had to try using the Gem Micromatic bullet-tip and the Gem Micromatic Clog-Free one more time each (left side with one, right side with other), and though I somewhat like them, it seems to waver between not close enough, and tricky angles that might get a closer shave but also nicks. Probably technique. I don't NEED a single-edged razor. They went back into the auction box.
So, why did I feel the need to try them again, in the hopes that maybe this time I'd like one or the other enough to keep?
Stupidest reason in the world... they (especially the clog-free) look totally awesomely steam-punk.
I am too nerdy for words.

Found a '75 black handle Super Speed yesterday at an antique store. Cleaned it and loaded it with a German Wilkenson Sword blade. Gave me such a nice shave yesterday I used it again today!
