Reef Point Submariner today. 20 seconds to load the Turtleship Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Schick Plus Platinum still in the Gillette NEW SC. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Reef Point Submariner aftershave.

Gebr. Lang were a well known purveyor of straight razors in the 1920s, but I've been no more successful in placing this razor in the company's catalog than the poster who (foolishly) sold it to me. The head may be generic German Old Type (?) but the handle is beautifully inlaid with some kind of ceramic mosaic. It shaves great, with a Nacet in its third shave i managed my head shave in just 1+ pass. It's quite toothy, and if I were to guess I'd say it has a bit greater exposure than the Gillette. Even so, buffing ATG in the moustache are was easily accomplished. I won't be selling this razor :-) .
