Comments	This is the sixth and final excellent shave with the Timeless SS SB .68 razor and Polsilver blade combination. I usually don’t get as many shaves with a blade. However, this combination is an exception. I got a smooth, BBS shave without the need for any touch-ups. Today’s brush is a boar brush, the Omega 81052. This brush does a superb job of making plenty of lather. The brush loads and performs perfectly. I used the Razor Rock Classic Soap for the 53rd. time. Have a wonderful day, folks.

This razor is probably the smoothest and most comfortable of the GEM style razors I've tried. It seems to shave just slightly less closely than the Clog-Pruf, but for a daily driver I think it works great.

Think getting a perfect 10 Shave is just not possible for some people.

Recall a guy is High School I will call CC, not sure where family was from.

But guy would come to school after shaving daily, his beard was Black.

He always looked like he did not shave, as his beard always showed on face.

He and Boys VP had many talks, guy never looked clean shavin.
