Monday, 23 May:
Gem MM Clog Pruf
Gem SS/PFTE Blade (8)
Made-Rite 500 PB Brush
Palmolive Shave Stick
Aqua Velva Ice Blue
After 8 shaves, the blade still seems good and sharp. I'm going for a couple of more shaves before I retire it. Also, I'm still loving the Palmolive Shave Stick.

Gem MM Clog Pruf
Gem SS/PFTE Blade (9)
Made-Rite 500 PB Brush
Godrej Rich Foam Cream

Not a bad shave but I think the blade will be going into the trash after tomorrow's shave; it's just beginning to pull a bit.

That is a lot of shaves from a blade. How many pass's do you do per shave? I do two passes (WTG, ATG) and touch-up. I do have a rather light beard and very fine hair. __________ Jeff |

Wednesday, 25 May:
Gem OCMM
Gem SS/PFTE Blade (10)
Made-Rite 500 PB Brush
Euro Palmolive Cream
Barbasol Brisk
Excellent shave today with the OCMM - very comfortable and close. I seemed to have significantly less tugging with the blade compared to yesterday so I'm planning on stretching another day out of it.

Was spending the weekend camping; just catching up.
Sunday, 29 May:
Gem FW
Gem SS/PFTE Blade (2)
Made-Rite 500 PB Brush
Palmolive Shaving Stick
Mennen Skin Bracer
Super shave despite the fact that only cold water was available. On the plus side, it came from a rain water barrel and was extremely soft. I got a crazy amount of lather from the Palmolive stick. The shave was so comfortable it didn't even feel like the razor had a blade in it.
