    You have chosen well. Of all the DEs I have tried that has the least flex.

    :duel:

    I will use my feather DX tomorrow and sympathy for all the popsicle shavers.

    Day 3 Detox Day 3 Dovo shavette

    Detox 2.3 kg down all ready.

    Today's shave with much better, no blood and no irritation. I still think this razors too light for my tastes. The blade is sharp but a little smoother today.

    Irritation A Closeness A Smoothness A- Sharpness A

    Who says you can't save money wet shaving? To popsicle sticks one DE blade and some Arko and you're good to go.

    Why do I have this feeling that this is gonna end poorly? I mean, it will be funny, I'm gonna laugh, and we will be provided with ammo for years to come, but you know...

    If there was ever a day for practicing good techniques, it's Cinco de Julio.

    The snakebite is a nice touch. Unwise, but nice.

    Unwise? I am making the assumption that this fine custom Kamisori will provide me with a wonderful two pass BBS. It was handmade by a very talented Yakuza from Kyoto. I have faith in Nine-Fingered Masa's skills.

    Once you commit to popsicle stick shavettes, there are no unwise choices.

    Technically, a St Petersburg grind double kamisori. You're in my prayers.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Well we are expanding our theory. Technique trumps tools.......but does it trump idiots with blades stapled to sticks? And does a popsicle razor qualify as a tool......or is that what we call the idiot who is holding it?

    Using snake bite after this razor?! Ah well, what's a little extra alcohol in open wounds eh?
