The GEM blade is much smoother after a few shaves. Close comfortable shave today and no irritation. Cold water shaving with a rigid blade has made such a difference.

The scent of rose brings back memories of being a kid and walking through Los Angeles Exposition Park rose gardens with my grandfather on Sundays to the natural history museum where he was a guard, and he would unlock the doors and let me wander around the empty museum by myself, looking at dinosaur skeletons, display cases of beetles and butterflies, wrapped Egyptian mummies, and other wondrous things. I was a very lucky kid.

3 wonderful passes and BBS glory. Always amazed at how good a tech is with a decent blade in it. Normally loaded with a Kai but the Personna came to hand first....

Awesome... I think that was the tour (U.K) that had Pat Travers, as a double headliner...
