    Tips on finding birth year?

    Thread Starter: dushea

    Hey all, I've been on the hunt for a couple weeks now for an F3 Gillette Super Adjustable. I've scoured eBay on almost an hourly basis, gone through Google searching every which way I can think of, but haven't had much luck. I know these things aren't very plentiful, but I'm curious if anyone has...

    Mike's Shaving Soaps and my potential acts.

    Thread Starter: Mbuckwash

    Gents of B&B, My fear: Perhaps I am thinking into this too much, but given that Mike of Mike's Shaving Soaps is nearing the end of his doctoral campaign, I fear we will not be able to purchase his incredible soaps for much longer. Note that I do not base this assumption on anything other than...

    Thread Starter: warhawk

    Hope all is well with U and your families. I have been enjoying my DE sampler pack that my beautiful wifey got me. So far... my two favorite DE blades are Shark Super Chromes & the Astra SPs. I am glad that Amazon sells a 100 pack of Astra SP for under ten dollars. My next 100 pack will be...

    warm humid weather affecting my routine?

    Thread Starter: Walk2

    Can the weather derail an otherwise working shave routine? I'm a newbie, 2 months in, and have settled on a routine that was working well. In the past 2 weeks, it's all gone downhill - more irritation, more ingrowns. I thought maybe I was getting cocky and my technique was worsening, but in the...

    SOTD: 20 - 26 May 2013

    Thread Starter: BRuhling

    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!

    Slow internet speeds - help?

    Thread Starter: heybatter

    I have 25 up/25 down service through Verizon and current speed tests only show max of 12 up but with 22-25 down. This is after running their "speed optimizer" tool that apparently changed some settings to maximize my speed but hell if I know because the program didn't actually give any details of...

    Just saying HI

    Thread Starter: smf77

    Hi, just registered, not a long time lurker. I've been a wet shaver for over 20 years, addicted to DR Harris Arlington AS Milk, but not a DE user until recently. I have a question for the membership; "can you REALLY get a bbs shave with DE setup without any razor burn?" I ask because I've...

    The 'Thomas Method' - genius or madness?

    Thread Starter: Mark1966

    I posted in my thread here comparing DE and SE about the (in)famous 'Thomas Method' so dubbed by me after its most vocal proponent in one of the Aussie shaving forums. In the controversial Thomas Method you do the first pass with a SE then the second pass and touch ups with a DE. Claimed by...
