Howdy fellas!! This’ll probably be only one of very few posts this month, however I didn’t want to miss Cinco De Julio (first time I’ve participated in the whole stick razor thing) - and just wanted to drop in and say “Hello”.
What’s the difference between a stunt shave and a regular shave? For starters, not being certain of the outcome. I wouldn’t have used this “razor” if I wasn’t confident enough that it would be fine. Secondly, angle and pressure. The whole purpose of this exercise is to illustrate that Technique Trumps Tools. And, it does….always.
Two passes plus a little cleanup around the Adam’s Apple* and today’s shave was every bit as good as any other shave, with any other razor.
*Full disclosure - I did a minor amount of touchup with a DE - ONLY because my “razor” fell apart at the end of the 2nd pass. I used E6000 to assemble the razor, and foolishly thought that even rinsing with water it would at least see me through one shave.
I hope everyone is doing well!! Have a great day, gents!
