I went on a trip recently and took a Gem Featherweight along. The razor, empty of a blade, is solid with tight closure.
But when I put a modern Gem PTFE blade in it, the head rattles and the blade seems loose. It doesn't affect the shave, as the blade stays in place up against the blade stops. But I'm not sure how, and the rattling and seeming looseness didn't seem right.
Do they all "do that"? Or do I have one with a flawed closing mechanism? More specifically, when you put a blade in your Gem Featherweight, does the blade rattle in the head?
