Another surprisingly good shave. I guess I'll be able to finish out the month this way.

I've been going through the other posts on this daily thread throughout the month. I'm very surprised by how many people are RawHoggin, and doing the MMOC challenge. And it is good to see how many others are doing well with both challenges. I'm looking forward to seeing all the data that is compiled for this month.

I found a good section of the blade's edge to capture for today. I think this shows the progression of edge-rounding and edge-breaking pretty well. It would be great to see the edge condition for those who have taken their GEM blade to 100 shaves this month. I wonder if their edges look different from mine.
