I have been shaving with a DE since the beginning of the year, My father in law gave me a '69 super adjustable that he had just lying around. I just happen to mention that I was considering using a DE and bam had one the next day. I really enjoy this and it is always something i look forward to. One of the reason i shave more now is my two daughters 5 and 3 y/o say "daddy you face is kinda pokey" if i dont shave for a few days. they really haven't said that this year at all. Thanks for having such a great forum! chris
