    Best suggestion for the Dominica. Take the puck and rub it into your slightly damp beard area. Rub HARD and get a ton of soap on your face. Then, be careful adding H2O, just use a soaked, but well shaken-out brush. Let us know how that works.

    That's the other issue that I neglected to mentioned, plus the tin containers rust.

    I wouldn't live in Boston. Was born there, but......too fast-paced for me. I'm 22 miles to the NW.

    Great shaves Paul! I have to watch how I shave with my Wostenholm near wedge as well. It is definitely different than shaving with a full hollow razor, but it certainly isn't that difficult to adjust to it.

    Hey, Joe, great shave! Have you heard of Tanifuji razors? I have one on the way to me! My son, Ben, recommended it. It’s got a very different-looking blade shape. What do you think? It was described as a shaving sword??

    Great shave, Andrew! Hard water has an effect on MWF . The solution is to lather with distilled water. I always suggest first working a paste up on the brush and applying it to your face. Then face lather by slowly adding water until you are satisfied. These methods may also work for Dominica!
