    The day I've long awaited... 5 weeks into my shaving odyssey and after a week long switch to my Gillette red tip SS, prematurely prompted by item of the week, I returned to my Merkur 34C. Today was the day it all went right. Two passes, 1 WG, 1 AG, went by without a hitch. I lathered up with King...

    Hey folks, I am a traditional wet shaver for about an year now and it has hit me deep, I must say, I have been infected with AD, particularly SBAD. :drool: After more than a good dozen of safety razors, including slants and OCs, my current favorite is Merkur 25C. I am more a fan of hard...

    possible to shave under the nose?

    Thread Starter: snowboardpunk

    Hi, I plan on getting into wetshaving (EJ DE89) but just by looking at the razor it seems like Ill have difficult time shaving under the nose/mustache area. Is this going to be a problem?

    I just completed a purchase of this shave cream off of the Italian Barber. It was only $6.99. Get it while it's hot, Gents! I am excited about this cream. Actually more giddy than excited. <laughing> Kirk

    Gillette Aristocrat

    Thread Starter: Muselife

    Hi all, New to wet-shaving and to these forums. Recently picked up an unusual rose-gold coloured Aristocrat - does anyone have any idea what this may be from? Haven't seen anything like it and it doesn't seem to have been replated.

    New Life for Some Older DEs

    Thread Starter: Kev Kev
