    I might look into Gabels..for a future Bay Rum A.S., as my Stephan is running low.

    Kind of a "Mini-Pasteur's Pharmacy" you have there :).

    Which razor are you referring to? The Iwasaki is just shy of 5/8.

    I’m afraid to count my remaining safety razors! I have about 50 straights.

    Great Tech shave kit! Good unobtainium soaps and AS products do help improve a shave!

    Thanks, Joe! According to your namesake, I shave with twigs. Interesting that you favor meat cleavers! Twigs and cleavers, go figure! :D

    Very nice, Gary! I do like the old brass razors. They shine up really nice!

    Thank you Jeff :). "Very Excellent" is not the best(course it LOOKS like it in writing),but it means my shave could have been a LOTT worse.

    Despite the cut, good shave Paul. Soap provides the slickness to glide the razor more easily, but it doesn't offer protection because the blade is still hitting your skin. Cuts are the result of pressing the razor harder than necessary or too steep an angle. Getting cuts, knicks and weeps while shaving is due to less than excellent execution.

    1, 4 and 6 is usually in my den. I just bought Clubman Pinaud Classic aftershave a few weeks ago and will be getting Aqua Velva shortly.

    And this is from a guy who just about decided to give up on straights a few years back. Smh and Lol!
