    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Hey @LOOT - ignore this for now.........

    Let's have Uri and Boris study that broken down razor to make sure they can disassemble it in less than 30 seconds. Just in case I give the go code. Have them decide on which part to "lose" too until the deal is done. Just in case, you know. Not threatening or anything. :innocent

    The only change I'd make is to remove my name. Just use "Czar" in its place. Better yet - "Evil Czar". Yeah, that's intimidating.

    Actually, I have to thank One Blade because they’re the ones who set me on this journey with traditional wet shaving. I got an e-mail featuring the One Blade, and being curious, I checked it out. I choked when I saw the price, and the proprietary blades w/ a subscription model put me off.
    I began thinking of my Grandfather’s Gillette that I used to see on his sink. Which in turn got me curious if DE razors were still made, used, etc.

    Had it not been for the One Blade, I probably wouldn’t have discovered the enjoyment of shaving with old school tools.
    They are excellent looking razors though. I’m just too cheap!

    So, they’re the ones who dropped me off on your doorstep. Feel free to e-mail your complaints to One Blade! :D
