I hang my strops on little cup hooks screwed to the inside of one of the towel cabinet doors, and only hang one on the wall-mounted hook when I...
I've seen quite a few different variations of the oil cleansing method published. I think most of it boils down to personal preference, they...
I have a Weishi and a very tough beard. With a sharp blade, I can get a close shave. The trick is in the angle. There is only a very small...
I have both razors, and enjoy using both of them. But if forced to pick just one for the desert island, it would be the Slant.
I have both the Krona and a Weishi. They are pretty close in shaving characteristics, but the Weishi is certainly heavier. Available HERE for as...

Actually, not counting the scales (which you would change anyway), the blade doesn't look all that bad in your picture. It is a stamped one, at...
You expect me to remember from 47 years ago? :D Well, whenever it got a little dull, which was about every 6-9 weeks, to the best of my...
I bought my first straight, a Hess Hair Milk, from my barber in 1961. He honed it for me as needed. I suspect that most men did this same thing...
Sounds expensive to me. The 300 side is probably not ever needed for razors, and I got a nice large King 1000 for $20.00. That's adequate for...
