I had never shaved with a Gem razor before today. I have several vintage razors, but never felt inclined to try one. I did not have a modern Gem razor, so I 3D printed my own! It was manufactured today 6/6/2024! It took about an hour to print my "Triceratops". I was a little worried about how it would shave, especially never having used a Gem razor before. My fears were unfounded. It shaved surprisingly well. No cuts and only a little irritation after a 2.5 pass shave. The results were a DFS. Not to bad at all. I am glad I convinced my wife to "get the kids" a 3D printer last Christmas. I printed the razor to match my shower curtain, blue and white which had the added bonus of being able to use the rainbow hashtag. My lather from Catie's Bubbles was very nice with a good cushion. I enjoyed the Irish Coffee scent even though I am not Irish!
I was unable to film my shave, but I most enjoy WetTubing star Mark Szorady. I enjoy his positive attitude and energy. I find his shaving tips helpful. I watched him when I was first starting my wet shaving journey. Watching him now feels like visiting with a friend. I also enjoy Subie Shaves.
My personal challenge continues and I again was able to use a different blade, razor, brush and soap brand.
