Pearl "The Sleek" (modified).  This razor has been doing yeoman's service at a touch up razor after a double pass SR shave (can't do E-W ATG pass on my right side neck-don't have enough flexibility in my left shoulder to raise my elbow high enough).  Also called into service when I need a quick shave on a light beard:

Have also been impressed with the included SilverMax (rebranded EuroMax) platinum coated blades.  The are not very sharp, but boy they last forever.
