    The Last Movie You Watched?

    Thread Starter: TravelingMan82

    These threads are fun. So what was the last movie you watched and did you like it? The last movie I watched was in class yesterday and it was Rocky Horror Picture Show. I hate that movie. :thumbdown

    Seraphim and his darn lapping film

    Thread Starter: rider4life

    So I just received a Gold Dollar from Seraphim, honed on lapping film. There are a lot of people on this forum (and others) who bemoan the use of lapping film to hone razors and some say the GDs are not shave worthy no matter what you do. To all of you out there I say you are correct. The...

    Maruichi Maruka Nakayama + Sheffield steel = shaving bliss. That is all.

    Cigar Of The Day (COTD)

    Thread Starter: jwhite

    Well yesterday actually:biggrin1: I had a smallish cigar about 36-38 ring gauge or so that my mother rolled for me on her last trip to Puerto Rico. Think a corona but just a bit thicker. Sweet finish as many Puerto Rican cigars seem to. I've had better, but not as much fun!

    Unknown DE's in today's haul

    Thread Starter: Kent Kimmons

    Picked up 15 razors today for $65. In them there are 3 that I have no idea what they are. One is a 3 piece open comb DE with absolutely no markings but it is hefty enough that I may keep it. Given the complete lack of markings and the vanilla look, I doubt there is a chance of an ID. The...

    global_dev straight journal

    Thread Starter: global_dev

    so i logged off B&B for a week so my wallet could take a break while all sorts of goodies were arriving at the front door. I also started a new job and used that opportunity to give straights a chance :w00t:. I picked up a GD108 here. The first time was quite nerve wracking in the beginning, but...

    Swiss Army knife modification

    Thread Starter: otto76

    I have a Wenger Standard Issue, this one: I want to rescale it...to me it looks as simple as unpinning the blade end and the center pin, then pulling out the lanyard loop and maybe drilling a pin out of that end if it's not just the lanyard loop holding it together. Does that sound right?...

    Feeling "proper"

    Thread Starter: Bowtie2Bimmer

    Good Morning Gents This morning I am getting ready to go to a wedding of a very good friend of 12 years. My slacks and shirt are nicely pressed. I am about to shave using my 31 Goodwill. I will don a bow tie... a proper bow tie, tied by me. And for whatever reason I feel very nostalgic. Very...

    Uncertain about DE shaving - advice?

    Thread Starter: GKC1

    Hello to all. I am considering switching to shaving with a DE razor, not because I don't get good shaves with my current razor, a Gillette Fusion, but because of the expense of the cartridges. I get an excellent shave with the Fusion razor, and it doesn't seem to matter what canned product I use...
