To the point of using a SEvette effectively. Maybe some don't know what a SEvette is? It's a SE razor minus the comb. Basically a bare blade on a "hoe
handle. They give a great shave, close! And it's all technique.
I have used hat type of unmentionable before. One of them twhite made and another I made from a vintage unmentionable that had a missing tooth on the comb. I also experimented with an AC blade in a wider unmentionable that does not have good blades available. When loaded the blade stuck past the guard bar that was there. Which I believe would make it an extra unmentionable.

Oh I can still toss the real thing. I just have not been around much. I did change my wireless plan to one that is unlimited and I have the mobile hotspot worked out. So I should be able to check in some at work. It is working ok so far tonight, Not as fast as when I am on the home wifi but really not that bad at all,.

Exactly my experience as well!
By the way, as a recent discoverer of how wonderful GEMs are, I love the sound of my whiskers being removed, often described as scraping toast. Is that the basis for the name of this forum? Enquiring minds want to know!

Sounds better that Bacon and Eggs for a SE shaving forum.
