Which Shavette did you use Today?

Parker SRX/Shark SS - 6 February 2018

 

Shavettes are scary to me. Guess I’m just......

 

I'll have to pick a day for the shavette now!

 

Post it here any time you do!

They are not exactly newbie toys, And you'd be just fine now with one!

 

Great thread!

The Magic Shavette!

 

Is that a request?

 

I’m excited to see what I’ll be getting for March Madness and will post it here too!

You have no idea. I've been waiting for someone with your precise background to run this experiment upon. You have like 500+ shaves on a single SR spike blade. That is a special and unique technique level. A spike forces the user to maintain even downward pressure across the bevel, exactly perpendicular to the also precisely applied vector that the stroke is following. Pressure hits the razor heel, and it gives you razor burn and is ineffective. Too much on toe, and you look like you lost a fight to vindictive houaecat. Right?

DE shavette corners act as a double spike (heel and toe).

If anyone can nail it easy...

It's you.

 

I tried mine out last night. Disaster to say the least. I have cuts , not nicks. It's just not for me I guess .

 

Nobody with a Gadsden Flag logo quits that easy.

Let's do this right!

...unfamiliar with how to operate one effectively.


(They can't top SR for coolness. Shaves though, first rate. I wouldn't make that up.)

 

Maybe after I heal up and get my pride back lol . I might give it another shot

 

That's the spirit! If you want to give it a shot, just be patient and make sure your skin stretches are good.

 

I started just shaving wtg on jaw . I thought I was doing good so I went for a full shave. I guess I was a lil bit full of myself thinking I was going to have a BBS shave on my first shavette adventure . End result was blood and I trashed the shavette . Don't worry though folks ! Im such a shave gear junkie I own another lol.

 

Cool, a Jedi master thread. I’m going a trip soon and I’ll take my Parker SR along.

 

Just curious as to the history of Shavettes? How far back do they date? I would like to see some serious collections by members.

 

I am smelling some serious enabling going on here.........

 

No that’s what I used Obiwan. If you remember, you were a strong influence in my coming to the dark side

 

Excellent! I will use the Magic today just for fun anyhow....

 

Yeah. It's bad.
