I find my Gillette adjustables both efficient and comfortable on setting "4" . The higher settings require more care in shaving without improving...
That's a really nice brush! I find the Red Tips rather odd -- Gillette marketed them as the most aggressive of the colour-coded TTO razors. But...
Thanks, Joe. Yes, I am wondering if bay leaf is in any way related to or somehow similar to catnip and other members of the mint family.

It's nice to see the really old equipment still doing such a great job! If those old makers knew that their razors were still in use a century or...
A little light on the shave descriptions, but great equipment photos, gents!
Good start to the month, Paul!
Aristocrat April, Gary? Getting Fancy Schmancy, are we? The plain old Gillette Techs are not good enough for you anymore, so now you have to...
