First time with the G-bar.

First time with this razor. Four passes plus a simgle cleanup pass led to a very nice DFS. I had a bit more irritation from the alum than I would have liked but that was from getting a bit too emphatic in clearing the stubble from my neck. Four stars out of five.

Razor: Gem G-Bar
Blade: Gem PTFE Coated SS
Brush: e4g Monarch AAA Badger
Lather: Stirling Soap Rose
Aftershave: Pinaud Lilac Vegetal
Addcare: Stirling Soap Menthe PSO, Osma Alum Bar


EDIT: 12 hoirs later and I'm still easily SAS. There's also some minor irritation that I thought had gone away. I like this thing as much as I like the other Gems, I think.

GEM 1912 / GEM SS PTFE - was a little too quick and a lot of irritation and a couple weepers. I forgot that I'm new to this type of shaving!
 
Gem MMOC with a PTFE blade. The blade makes all the difference. A great aggressive smooth shave. I face lathered da FAT with a pure badger brush and finished with mankind ASB and AV Musk. Got a good burn from the after shave. $uploadfromtaptalk1409755169641.jpg
