I'm pretty well stocked on shave sticks and use them often so I was thinking that may be the way to go. I think I can make that work. I'm also...
I have a 2-band badger that has a 28mm knot in a 30mm handle and that setup works great. I'd try putting the knot in without adhesive/epoxy first...
Thanks. That all sounds like good advice. I'm definitely a side-sleeper so that won't be easy. But it will be nice when it's not popping out of...
So, just found out I need to have rotator cuff surgery and it'll mean a couple months with my dominant arm in a sling. No way I'm going to quit...
Facebook: Deleted my account several years ago. The algorithm is designed to enrage you and drive engagement. I'm less enraged without it and I...
I finally got around to trying La Toja and have used it the past 2 days. It's not bad so far but I'm not sure it's going to unseat Wilkinson...
Might have to try those at some point but I need more blades like I need a hole in the head :).
3rd shave was not quite as good as the first 2. The blade was noticeably duller, verging on tuggy and skipping over quite a few whiskers that I...
I wouldn't say they're my new favorite blade or anything. Just that they seem to have improved since I tried them 10 years ago. I think they're...
2nd shave was pretty decent too. Maybe not quite as close as yesterday which might mean the blade's losing some sharpness but there was no alum...
I've never tried them personally but they're not terribly expensive and no matter what anyone else thinks, your face is the only one that'll know...
Thanks for the offer but I have so many blades, I'll have to live a good long time to use them all :).
When I started DE shaving about 10 years ago the Derby Extra was the first blade I tried. They were in the sampler back I got and lots of people...
A Trac II isn't a bad choice when you can't take a DE. I just got back from a short trip where I could only take a carry on bag. I took my Bump...
I have seen changes over the past decade. My local Walgreens quit carrying Clubman original and Virgin Island Bay Rum. I don't usually buy Aqua...
Your comment about the blade feeling tuggy exactly mirrors my experience with the Merkur slants. People say a slant imparts some kind of slicing...
I've used a few pucks just like you're doing. Wrapping some foil around it works just fine. I like to use my soap as a pre-shave too and it's...
I've lived that dream quite a few times. At least a little less ominous version of it anyway. I wish I knew then what I know now. I agree on...
Thank you for posting and reminding me to update. I'm almost done with this puck. I actually smashed the remains of it into a shave stick...
Wilkinson Sword is probably my favorite but I haven't seen it around in a bit. It may have been discontinued but I'm not positive. Arko...
