I know this is an old post but I just found this. That is a very cool find - amazing! And amazing sleuth work on the patent!

I have never ever EVER seen one of those or even considered such a thing might exist! I know it's an old thread but I'm just checking the date again to make sure it's not a photoshop to catch us on April Fools Day ... and it isn't. That is bona fide awesome, Tom.

Wow. Thanks to KarlG for bumping the thread, Mr.Flay for digging up the patent, and of course Tom for an awesome find. I've been monitoring eBay on a near-daily basis for over a year, using broad search terms ("gem razor") so as not to miss anything, and I have never seen one of these. Apparently it is a prototype that was never put into production, meaning that there are only a handful in existence. A shame, cause I want one. --Bob

Still occasionally use it! I'm afraid to use it a whole lot and risk messing up the untested mechanisms.

You deserve it maestro....You have done much to help many discover this whole SE scene....You were my Sensei who turned me onto the whole GEM, EverReady experience...which Rocked my Shave Cave.... and of course I'll never forgive you for my now rageing SE RAD! DAMN!!
