Thank you
I have a Merkur Futur and yes, the plate work is iffy. I think the Parker Variant, closed and open comb versions, are terrific razors in design...
So it's time to restock on single edge, and I see that the trusty Personna 62-0178 coated have been discontinued and rebranded under the Accutec...
I go back and forth between DE and SE razors. Even though I have been on this wet shaving journey for 12 years and thought I knew everything...
I have all versions of the hawk since it came out 9 years ago or so. I like V3 the best because the polished head glides amazingly well, however...
I had the progress and have both versions of the parker variant. The parker is better made with much better tolerances, the coating glides much...
I have both. They are excellent. Both better in my opinion than the progress (better tolerances and plating). I usually shave at the mildest...
Terrible razor. Dont use it. Let me give you $10 (plus shipping my way) to help mitigate the loss.
The problem i faced with stainless steel razors is that blades if left wet in the razor can a do stain, and that stain is sticky and sticks to...
LPL was a constant disappointment for me and I ended up tossing the whole jar.
I use it about once a week. Love the scent, not thrilled about anything else about it. Would never use it with an aggressive razor, or a straight...
VDH - love it, very much underrated. La Toja. Excellent stuff.
Performance is top-tier in my opinion. I like the scent but I over-used it for a couple of weejs straight and now I can't bring myself to use it....
Yes. Disposable SE blades work great on this model, whicn is a great shaver.
My favorite safety razor lately is a 1912 with an Astra DE blade (i cut the side flaps). http://i.imgur.com/xAuQj4C.jpg...
WD40 has a strong mechanical smell I don't care for. I use Ballistol, it also has a scent, but not as bad and it is non-toxic. Search for...
A straight razor is more forgiving to user error. A mistake that would go unnoticed in a straight razor can mean serious blood with a shavette....
Either whippeddog or the b/s/t forums. You can get an excellent razor for about $50-$60 easily, even less depending on aesthetics.
While I have a few excellent DE razors that shave wonderfully (Tradere SB, Gillette New,Old Type) , I don't recall when was the last time I used...
A few notes: I have a Dovo Best Quality, 5/8 half hollow. The blade is great, the scales are crap. I'd avoid that model and get something better....
