I did not know about this site til I saw a link in a thread on B&B. Glad I found it as I think SE shaving gives me the best shave ever !
After being a DE shaver for a few months, I bought a GEM 1912 and needless to say, my DE razors are collecting dust. I now own 2 GEM 1912, 1 Ever Ready 1912, 2 GEM Damaskeene, 2 MMOC, 2 Clog Pruf and 1 G-Bar.
I guess you could say I am hooked on SE shaving !

I will try to get a group shot of my SE razors in a few days and post it here.

Welcome Marinedad,

Glad you saw the link at B&B. Might have been in an old, old, post I made over there. Don't go there anymore though.

Sounds like you have the SE bug and you got yourself a nice start on the razors. Need to ditch the MM and the Clog Pruf and get yourself some lathercatcher style SEs.

Ask any questions about SE shaving except why I don't like MMs and why Fuzzy aka wchnu loves Williams soap! If you do you will get the longest replies you have ever seen on a shave forum as we explain our views. ;D

Hold still rabbit, so I can cook you!

Hope you enjoy the stay. Good start on razors there. Ignore Possum about the MM's he just can't use good equipment.
