    Yeah, I have 6$ dollar Old Type too. Bought it at an antique shop, I either a great 2 pass Shave or bunch of nicks and irritation. Can't really seem to figure it out.

    Great minds think alike. I think your going to be very happy when it arrives. Still can't believe what a value the razor is. An all brass machined razor for under a hundred.

    If I could find a new techmatic cartridge, I'd give it a try.
    Beautiful setup, Keith!
    Another beautiful photo, Clint!
    Great shot, Perry! Have fun in Montgomery!
    Very nice!
    The neck is a hard area to be mindful of pressure and angle. Since I am prone to ingrown hairs on the neck I only go WTG and call it good enough.
    Fantastic photo, Jim! Have a great day with the kids!
    Great looking setup, Jason!
    Beautiful shot, Mark! What's the blade gap on your Wolfman ?

    SOTD Adjustable April 18th
    [​IMG]

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Gillette Fatboy
    Dorco Prime Platinum(2)
    B&M Eventide
    Yaqi Mysterious Space (24mm, Frigate Class)
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill

    Last shave I kinda had the sensation that the Dorco was a little tuggy on the first pass and the sensation persisted today so I'm going to bin the blade. The Eventide continues to amaze me, if you are a fan of Oud scents you really need to check this one out. The Yaqi on the other hand just doesn't have enough backbone for me, too much bloom and splay and not enough scrub. Have a great day my friends!
