Gem Micromatic ClogPruf

Shave of the Day
July 26, 2013
Gem/EverReady Week (2)

•Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender soap
•Kingsley badger brush
•Gem Micromatic Clogpruf razor
•Gem stainless steel blade
•Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla

I took me several tries before I could shave safely with the Clogpruf. It is a very aggressive and efficient razor.

The TOBS Lavender is among the best in my den, due to its lather, lubrication, and the scent.

The Clubman Classic Vanilla is a warm scent that lasts a long time.

Gem Micromatic ClogPruf

Shave of the Day

July 16, 2013

•Proraso Green Tub soap

•Century boar brush

•Gem Micromatic Clogpruf razor

•Treet blade 

•Lucky Tiger shave balm

The Micromatic Clogpruf is the most aggressive of the Micromatics, in my opinion. Nevertheless, with care, it produced a great shave.
