June 2022 30 Day Rule/Focus and Discussion. All Are Welcome!

Yes, it is quite the shock, but I have been thinking about the Vector for quite a while. I took the plunge and do not regret it (although I have put several DE razors up for sale to recover the cost). The RR Hawk might be worth looking at as I hear it is a good AC razor at a much lower cost.

I am beginning to think that single edge razors are working better for me than double edge. I have two classic Schick injectors, the G and J, and they are wonderful single edge razors (and quite comfortably affordable). GEM razors look so cool, and I bet they are fun to use. I just can't take on yet another blade type!

 

It is a nice looking razor. Stainless too! RazoRock Hawk Standard with HD handle

 

Fine shaves and cool gear, gents!

 

Thanks, Joe! I'll be around as much as I can.

Btw, great introduction post and thanks for the shout!

Have a great day!

Mühle makes some excellent razors! The R89 would definetly benefit from a sharper blade. I prefer the R41 tho.

Thanks, Gary!

Thank you, Joe!

 

Thanks and you are welcome Daniel.

 

absolutely.i meant it's previous owner,not yourself.looks like it had a carbon steel blade left in it for a decade or 3.

 

looks good.

 

thank you Joe.it was..

 

thank you Daniel.

 

Well, I know the razor that I will be using tomorrow. It's not the Mühle R41 or the Gillette Fatboy. It's going to be my Gillette Redtip. I will be using a Gillette 7'o'clock Perma-Sharp blade.

 

sounds like a fine shave..

 

June Focus Shave -- Monday Evening Edition

Razor: Blackbird Vector (SS)
Blade: Feather Professional
Soap: Stirling Barbershop
A/S: Skin Bracer

Beautifully efficient 2-passer this evening. The scent combo is old school cool. My real goal is to have a 'stache like the cartoon barber's.

 

fine shave..

 

and again..

 

up for tomorrow..

 

I am sure it will be. I just need to make my lather thicker and to be focused instead of being on autopilot mode.

 

Very nice shave Eric. Glad to see you back in whatever capacity you are able to be here.

 

Very nice Hogie.

 

That's a great setup and shave Eric. I guess you would have to get mustache wax to curl the ends. It would be great if you sang in a barbershop quartet, then you would fit right in the group. Of course, this assumes that you can sing harmony and there is a barbershop quartet in need of a singer near you.

 

Nice!
