I have been using my Rockwell 6C trouble free for over a year. Recently I ran out of my stash of 30+ year old Williams soap and started using some...
I second the thrift store as a source for shaving utensils. I have found a few lather bowls and a set of Pyrex soap bowls. When I first went to...
I had the same dream. This is what I came up with.[ATTACH]
Tried the Bic Chrome Platinum for the first and second shave in my SuperSpeed. Since the SuperSpeed was what I'm used to shaving with and wanted...
Just got a Rockwell 6C and so far (two shaves) I find the small unknurled section near the end of the handle bothers me. My little finger keeps...
Plate #4 was better (closer) than #3 with the Astra SP on the fifth shave with this blade. Now the mailman just delivered some Bic Chrome...
My first shave with my new Rockwell 6C. I read that most use #3 or #4 so I used#3. Instead of a new blade I took a Astra SP out of my Gillette...

I pressed "This old Puck" into a glass bowl and used it today. In the past I had the puck in a mug and tried to build up a lather right on the...
This box is vaguely familiar. I see VHD in the shield. So this is the early VDH?
Surrey is a possibility. I can definitely say I never saw or heard of Col Cronk or Colgate but Surrey is possible especially if it was cheap. I...
I could not smell much scent so I asked my wife and she said "It smells like soap". I highly doubt it is Col Cronk. The first I have heard of...
I wonder what "This Old Puck" is?
I shaved in the 1970's with a Gillette SuperSpeed DE razor and Williams Shave Soap. I changed over to electric shaving when my Father In law...
