Comments: Using my Vintage Gillette - 1933 New Long-Comb - 3 Piece Open Comb Safety Razor - 92 Years Old Plus Razor. Still using a Razor Emporium - Rex Supply Platinum - DE Razor Blade. Blade is on Day # TEN of first use ever. Still almost NO Blade feel, Blade is sharp like Surgical Knife. This combination was a WINNER! REX PLATINUM BLADE is worth price for nothing else but shave quality IMHO. My plan was use this Blade to SHAVE # TEN, then trash. As Blade gave a good service life.
Sticking with my first impressing of this New DE Blade is like Buffalo Bob Smith use to say with excitement, COWABUNGA, BLADE is like almost GRAIL. Correct me if you disagree BUT IMHO Technique is more important than SHAVING TOOLS . Never will chase BBS, Skin problems, why do I need too? JMHO.

A very nice easy mild shave with the page. Still got the job done. If they ever offer the page in stainless i would snap it up. Lovely geometry.
