Greetings to all! When I was a kid I saw my grandfather shaving with his Gillette. Recently, my father told me that he had seen a beautiful 3-piece razor in a drugstore and, I don't know why, those memory of my grandfather shaving made me curious about these 3-piece razors. I investigated for a...

Thanks to a very generous member here at B&B "Krodor" I officially have a straight razor on its way. The razor is GD that has had the shoulders removed and is shave ready, other than that I have never seen it and know nothing about it but am very excited to get it. I just ordered a travel strop...

Ok, before everyone starts saying "Oh no! Another Veg thread!" I want to say right up front that this isn't a typical I love it / I hate it Veg thread. So save your effervescent praise or bashing for any of the other threads. I like to solicit the opinions of the frag heads out there. I'd like...

B&Bers, last week was yet another fabulous showing. The SOTD is by far the best thread on this forum. And it is all because of your contributions! I'm starting off this week with a Chandler pattern welded steel blade. It was a velvet squeegee and I am a happy man!

So today I had my ceremony for my retirement from the USAF after 22 yrs of service. 1958 ball tech for my face, Schick Krona for my melon. Personna lab blues in both. Stirling's Scots Pine for soap. Spanish fig and nutmeg to calm it all down. Of course I was the sharpest man in the room for at...

Hi all, Attached are pics. I've only shaved TWICE in my life with a brush and soap so I'm no pro by any means. It was purchased in a chemist (a large chain called Harrison's in Australia) as the only shave soap they had. I've now had 2 shaves with the soap as I said and I'm really not...

It has been three weeks since I spoke to the folks up at Reliable Electroplating about my Gillette President sent up there for replating. I am really looking forward to receiving it back.

French Aristocrat #16 Razor Set? (Pic Heavy!)
Thread Starter: thekingeA couple of years ago, Porter had created a thread about a unique Gillette case that he received along with a Monobloc he won off an auction from eBay France. Surprisingly, Porter was not able to match the case to any known Gillette set at that time. Fast forward two years, and I won a British...
