Gem Micromatic Open Comb Safety Razor review

[@deshave5260]

Fantastic video. Many thanks for sharing with us.

The overly powerful spring that was inside when I got this kept popping up even when it was sitting untouched and eventually that spring and another part fell into my drain and I was never able to retrieve it.

That sucks illl admit, it's nice to have but it's def not my go to by any means

[@SecondKindOfCool]

Great video. I love my SE razors. Nice shave 😎💈💈😎

Incoming - Open Comb MM with Bakelite case! I already own a brass Clog Pruf with a very nice case. It definitely is aggressive on my neck area!

[@CDShavinMurphy]

Oh yeah? Duuuude nice find!!!!! Hows the case? In good condition???

[@clontstable1]

@@CDShavinMurphy Both the case & razor are in great shape! I'm going to send the seller a thumbs up message.😎😉

[@clontstable1]

I picked up the case & razor for $14.00 on EBay.

Do you have the gold version without the nubs inside? I found that to be way more aggressive than the chrome version.

[@CDShavinMurphy]

No, i didn't know that was one, I've found since i did this video the nubs bite more than the razor

[@nickfanzo]

Try it.the gold one doesn't have the bumps inside then plate of the head. It is WAY More aggressive . The chrome one has the bumps inside and makes the angle different.

[@CDShavinMurphy]

@@nickfanzo aaaaand those bumps are fuckin sharp too!!

You had me convinced I needed one until you mentioned at the end that new safety shavers need not apply, being an advanced shaving item, that puts me out of the game as I'm trying to eliminate plastic disposable razors from my life since they are barely adequate and too costly for the results given. I'm growing a beard I guess.

I just got one of these. I really like it! Any idea how to oil it?

[@CDShavinMurphy]

Howard Blake people have different opinions on that what I do is take a little bit of oil whichever one you have and put one drop on each one of the hinges work it back and forth wipe off the crazy extra it doesn't have to be perfect then just let it sit feel like a day some people use it right away I do that just to make sure that the oil seeps into where it needs to go it's a little over and above but I do it anyway
