    Now I would like a nice example of an F Type. Let me know if you get an extra one.

    I'm going to have to take a day off from it soon for exactly that reason. It's killing me looking at my Stirling glacial soaps every day and not able to use them. I'd like to think that I'd eventually reach a point where I can do it without the feeling in my face. A barber can shave another guy's face after all. But that won't be any time too soon.

    Correct.

    Tattoos are tattoos for the people who want tattoos.

    Every scar reveals a story.

    The handles can suffer from aluminum corrosion, but if they aren't deeply pitted they can be polished easily.

    There was a Schick F on the bay recently for $250. Buy It Now. That's way too rich for my blood. I'm a $20 or less razor guy!

    3rd shave in the books! Amazing shave today. First time using Stirling soap and I loved it. It practically lathers itself. I'd say I definitely prefer it over proaso. Much better getting all directions of growth on my neck shaved this time. The one little skin tag still bled but eventually it will get lopped off. I have a bunch of different soaps I want to order and try, but it's going to be a challenge to not just order all my soap from Stirling. Have a wonderful day gentlemen [​IMG][​IMG]

    It doesn't get much better then Stirling! Stirling can also hold a bunch of water, try giving it a little more next shave. The more water you give it the slicker it will get!

    Not a bad idea actually. That way, you limit yourself to 40 or so. :D

    Day...13?

    Mostly yesterday again, with a slight step backwards. Two full passes with the Ralf Aust. Toward the end of the second my left hand started feeling a little unsteady, so I switched back to the right hand to finish.
