Today's shave was delightful - made delightful in significant part by a new-to-me GEM Ever-Ready Razor and Case that I picked up from Patriot on the BST.  I already own an Ever-Ready, but not nearly as well-kept as this, and not with a case.  This one is even more beautiful than my photo shows, and Patriot kindly included a bunch of PTFE blades and a pair of carbon steels, in  addition to the two Ever-Ready blades that came in the blade holder.  -- Thank you Patriot!

I came so close to buying that myself and for the same reasons you state. Congrats on a beauty Mike !!

Dammmn!  These Feather blades get downright ornery after just a few shaves.  The “Everyday Razor” by CG is a mild razor but this morning’s shave was as irritating as a load of crusher run inside your sneakers...
