  1. As a youthful 64 yr old senior man, I will keep my straights, thank you very much! I believe the eye-hand coordination needed to straight shave is stimulating my brain to stay healthy!
  2. As a 72 yr old sr I wish I could use a straight, but my Parkinson’s prevents it. I still really enjoy my double and single edge safety razors.

    Enjoy your shaves,

    Jeff

  5. I’ve worked through two of the Stirling pre-shave bars and liked them both. The Cube will last forever. May go back to Stirling after the Cube is done.
  6. Thanks gentlemen!

  8. Thank you, Bill.

    A dear friend stopped by this week for a visit and showed my Bride how to make blankets and throws using "loopy" yarn. She started on one for herself, and plans to make blankets for the babies at the hospital where we volunteer. Our friend requested progress reports, and this is the photo we sent her this morning.

  11. Tomorrow i'll try the same setup as today, but with a different blade and a boar brush, the Razor Master one. Not really feeling the Treets in the Tech, even though i was able to get a decent shave. After that i'll decide what i will use through next month.

  18. I'm a city slicker only in that I was BORN in one....Boston. I love Washington DC, which technically is a "city", but its open space takes that image away some.

  19. Very nice image Clint. Textures and colors! Wow, cool brush too. Really helps seeing some of the handle color combos in everyone's images....

    I'm now a firm believer in shaving every day. Just makes it better. Daily shaving is nearly ingrained for me now, just like my morning coffee. Love all your choices Dale!
