  1. I can indeed vouch for both the antiquity and rarity of those of shavettes. The example taken from Mark Twain's shave den is proudly on display at the Smithsonian. I'll never forget the day I saw the Twain Weck. ;)

    Wit is the sudden marriage of ideas which, before their union, were not perceived to have any relation. Mark Twain
  2. Ouch!
    Glad to hear it's healing nicely.

  5. Yikes! :scared001:

    But also kind of funny. When I wound myself or break something due to hobby related activities I go through a similar process: (a) self recrimination and (b) "The Missus can never find out about this!" (she always does, though). :happy102:

  6. Awesome report, Paul! Oh the dry touch up shaves I have endured around my lips because I just didn't realized I missed a spot--too many to count :happy102:

  7. Thank you Charlie. It's a miracle that it healed without any complications.

  11. Good-I am not alone here :). Although I don't know that I could succeed with what you've done-dry shave near the lips.

  12. Yes, charts are fine, but seeing a real presentation is better.

  13. @Keithmax, you commented on my pinky post with this comment. It's ok because I have a steel pinky! Lol!

  15. Thank you ...... wounding myself reminds me of two things ...... 1) the time it's going to take to heal and 2) the chiding I'll receive from my lovely friend (my wife).

    Shaves better than a Featherweight.
    Looks like it's a 70's model from the design.
    Can't find anything out about it.


    Thanks Tim!
    I saw that too, not to interested, not in very good shape.

    So I guess I just have a unique one here.

  20. Great shave and post James! The quality of the lather does help to get a great shave.
