    Been awhile since I pulled out the Cdn E2 and wasn't disappointed. Clean close shave , the VDH brush whipped up a nice face lather only to be taken away aling with about 3-4 days of stubble. I hereby promise to shave more often.

  6. It is in a glass bottle. I've been using the vintage bottle I picked up. If I live long enough to finish the vintage bottle I'll decant the modern version into it.

  12. The guy I bought the three razors I posted yesterday sent me a message right after he had shipped and said that he though one of the razors was not working right or was missing something. He said he would refund me $4.00 for the razor or the entire $12.00. I sent him a message and told him to let me put my eyes on them. They were fine and I sent him a note letting him know. It is refreshing when folks are honest and want to do the right thing.

  19. When I coined that term, I wasn't thinking about the nefarious connotation of it.

  20. Thanks but I missed probably the easiest and most obvious hockey reference related to shave gear. I got the Russian and Canadian references in. Made sure Ice got mentioned. Even got in the three passes (periods) with intermissions. How in the world did I not mention the soap PUCK?!?!?!?! Sheesh. I'm getting old.:signs131:
