What straight did you use today? Now with PICTURES

[Seraphim]

tonight i dug out my "RING O BELLS".\ 7/8ths..... with a fresh JNAT edge.... 2 passes and a touchup DFS using TABAC...

i really didn't care for the JNAT edge on this particular razor.... so as i was shaving my underarms *(shut up... it keeps me cooler at work and really has eliminated any BO from sweat) i dinged the edge on the faucet *(not really a ding just a brush but anyway) so i ran to the living room and redid it using the coti and finishing it coti with oil........ then stropped it up and finished ....

this razor really loves the coti/oil combo .... sweet...

Is that a boar brush in the bowl, or is it lathered up arm pit trimmings?

Well there went any chance of a trade......... j/k

At least it was not the manscapping comment.

If you get a razor from Paco-Barbicide for a while LMAO

Boker Celebrated 7/8+ I just received it yesterday and honed it up. I'm not sure it had ever been been honed and Man these take an edge. I like!

Just a little armpit trimming right? Harmless enough..

There's manscaping, and then there's pit scraping.

Two totally different things.


BTW, I shaved my pits this morning in homage to Paco. But I used the hotel issued KAI double blade disposable, not a quality blade. Can't say as I enjoy the less than BBS underarm feel...

True. Shaved with one of my Boker Red Injuns last. There's something about shaving with a razor that was made about 100 years ago

Your absolutely right and this Boker is my only recently produced(2010) razor I have and I have had several new that just did not make the cut. (no pun intended)
