What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Why is this the first time I’ve seen anything about it? Was it a sudden decision or awhile in coming?

 

I wish I knew. I learned about it this morning on the Shave of the Day forum. I’ve spent time in the past on many other shaving forums and none of them had the friendly and helpful attitude of this community. It’s been a regular small pleasure in my daily life for the past decade

 

I hear ya. I will miss it as well but I still frequent and contribute to other forums. Perhaps I’ll see you on one of those

 

Tuesday morning shave, CVH MK No.32. Most delightful shave, one of the best blades ever.

Fantastic shave with the ever so slightly smiling W&B. This was one of the first straights that I bought and still one of the best for consistent, smooth and easy shaves

A very fine shave with my heirloom straight from my grandpa Val. Amazing to think it’s been in use in the same family for probably 75 years or so. Lots of satisfying Velcro ripping feedback and smooth results. Just a great all-around shave
