    Looking forward to how it works on a head shave. I don't think I have ever read a report on one.

    No thankfully not lol. But now I need to acquire a shelving system that accommodates my growing shave den. Luckily I’ve received a referral for a lady that does excellent looking custom woodwork.

    Got that silver plated Schick Trac II handle, the one with the flowers, for the daughter. It's got a really nice hand feel to it, lighter than expected, will shave with it before work.

    Just scored this minty Aristocrat correction Diplomat A1
    With a few of the original blades.
    I am not a big DE guy, but when I come across nice razors cheap. I buy them.

    Very nioce! Started with cartridges. Then, went on to str8s but now I’m pretty set with DEs. Just seem to give more control and variables. Curious what you prefer to shave with?

    That razor is my first standout good shave memory from when I came to DE. Paired with a Spoiler...unbelievably blissful.

    Tom it’s a diplomat. The full knurling is the distinguishing factor when looking at it vs an aristocrat. The Aristocrat either came with 2 smoother bands ( not smooth but less knurled) or with 1 knurled and one smooth. The only similar razor that came either or was the president but take away the rhodium plating and well it would be an aristocrat.

    Thank you. For the info. I will have to give it a spin this week. Been a few years since I used a Gillette.
