I get two advantages from a shim. Without a shim I need to lift the head a tiny bit off the face to get to the correct angle, with a shim I keep the head flat on my face. I prefer that, but you can get a great shave without. Secondly, a shim reduces the 'buttering toast' sound of the razor, which as I mentioned above is just blade chatter. I really want a rubbery (3D printed?) sleeve for the spine of a GEM blade, to really shut the blade up. Also, my experience with 1912s is limited to British made ones. Your 1912s may vary. Y1MV? How about using a rubber band to help with the chatter. I've tried it today it and it works. Shim and silencer in one. Thanks for your brilliant idea, Tom.
