Most aggressive of the Gems ? - CDinVT - 06-15-2022
I've been on the Hunt to get my next gem razor. I have a featherweight and a 1912 .I would like something on the more aggressive side . Would that be the Micromatic open comb?
Mild to Aggressive : Contour 2, Contour 1 , Push button ,G bar , Feather weight, MM Bullet tip, Gem JR, 1912, Damaskeene , MM CP ,Damaskeene OC, MM OC. Is this ordering correct ?

Some people will say the MM there is not that aggressive. I think that if the technique is off that it can be a monster. If you want blade feel you got the right one. My most aggressive feeling of the SE world the MM. I have a Schick E2 and G-8 that are even more so. Glad you are looking for the challenge!!

You need a Gem Jr. lather catcher.
