  3. John it sounds like you might need to hunt around the house for another box or two of razors. Looking forward to seeing some of them in upcoming shaves.

  14. Thanks Guys.....but they melt razors down like mine to make razors for Keith @Keithmax! :happy102: I take that back. They probably use some kind of special alien metal ore for his razors!

  16. Thanks, Danny! At this point, shaving with my Dovo shavette almost has become second nature. I still have to do some minor tweaks to my technique, but with more experience it will come.
  17. O.K. guy...y'all keep this up for the month and I am going to throw in the towel. Excellent shaves!
