Super smooth shave from the Streamline tonight, probably my best yet. I think this razor likes a steeper shave angle than other GEMs I've used (handle closer to face).

Nice! First or second gen?

It's a great razor, but man did I just get two rough shaves from it.

Pretty rough shave this morning actually, I think this blade might be a dud, into the bin it goes.

Decent shave, minimum irritation (a couple weepers). Still trying to figure out how I feel about how this Streamline shaves.

Comfortable is priority number one! If the shave isn't that close, well then you just get to shave more often. :)

No, I'm borrowing it from JoboozeRum. It's a gen 2.

It's definitely a beautiful razor, but I'm not sure I love how it shaves. More experimentation required!

Thanks for the wiki link. I'd read this a while ago but had forgotten all about it. Great stuff.

My understanding is that Accutec, the company that was producing Personna blades for the US market, no longer has a partnership with Personna and can no longer use their brand name. Because of this, they’ve rebranded to Accuforge.

Same blades, different name, as far as I’m aware.

Quick shave this morning before a busy day today. The Streamline is giving me decent shaves, but it feels a little harsh still. I'm withholding judgement until the blade is a bit more broken in.

Have a great Saturday, y'all.
