I saw that Ron from Chiseled Face posted these photos earlier of a SE he's designing that takes the GEM blades.

Quote:Time to release some exciting news I've been keeping under my hat for about a year. I'm in the process of making a machined 3 piece GEM razor.

As far as I know no one has ever made one before, and after numerous prototypes, this one is just about ready to be manufactured.

Please note, that the pics are of a 3D printed stainless prototype that I had to do some dremel adjustments on, so don't judge the finish quality please! I do love the shave I get from even this rough model though!

Keep your eyes open!

Wow! That came out of nowhere! I knew ATT and Colonial were talking about coming out with an SE that uses Gem style blades, but hadn't heard about this until now.

me neither! very exciting news, indeed. especially if it's as mild as Ron says it should be in the comments.

Interesting! I was wondering when it would happen. Not that specific razor, but just in general.

Unfortunately if it clamps the blade securely it will kill one of the things I must have in a SE razor... sound.

It will be interesting to see what the price point is going to be and where he is going to have them made. Free razor with shaving soap purchase, maybe? LOL

I asked Ron if it has the audible feedback a typical GEM has. I'll let you know what he says..

Is he a member here at DFS? Maybe you should invite him, andrewjs18 ?
