    Like a bad habit or an old friend, I'll always play with this shavette. It's fun. Barbasol is too. The Shave? Automatic. Other than that...I gotta start reading...and all is quiet in Colorado.

    Have a great Thursday!

    But to be in style your collar has to match your belt.

    I distinctly remember going on a cruise with my parents in 1978, and wearing a lime green leisure suit with a brown shirt complete with butterfly collar. One had to dress for dinner in those days. There was enough polyester on that ship, that had a fire broke out it wouldn't have burned but everything might have melted.

    I have used the 1912 on numerous occasions. Definitely a nice razor.

    I see the responses you've already gotten as I'm a bit late to the party tonight. Some DE's really are as easy as finding your face with the razor but will still create irritation and other problems. Or just deliver really crappy shaves because the technique isn't right. The super mild ones especially can be frustrating until you learn how to make it work on that small gap and mild design. Just my two cents, late as I said. Basically I just have to say Technique Trumps Tools a couple times a month or I don't get my stipend for watching over this place.

    I wore shirts just like that!

    Of course, Mom was buying my clothes then and picking them out. :cool:
