I'm sure not gonna stick it in an autoclave and really don't want to invest in chemicals dedicatd to the chore (Barbicide for example). Any ideas how to safely clean this spud up using common...

    Bird_Flu's straight razor journal

    Thread Starter: Bird_Flu

    I should preface this by saying for almost the first 20 years of shaving, ever since I was 12 years old, I shaved with cartridges. Sometimes I would shave in the shower no canned goo, sometimes with canned goo, but never very often or comfortably. Fast forward to sometime last year and a work...

    Little bastone bites back.

    Thread Starter: ohthatguy

    Got a bit cocky and paid the price. My first shave was good, only one nick and irritation free. Second shave however, I went too aggressive and too much pressure. Several nicks and burn the fire department couldn't put out. Learned my lesson, that little beast is a handful if you're not careful.

    what is your opinion on buying a used but cleaned brush? Any thoughts? Autoclave?

    Thread Starter: inspectoring

    I am curious and just wanted to get an opinion - I am buying a simpson chubby 1 super used - should I just cough up the extra dough and go for a brand new one?

    Clue me in on good (and cheap) knives please?

    Thread Starter: Haggises

    I'm in desperate need of some good knives, but I'm also cheap and need a good bang for the buck. Number one is a bread knife. I realized I've never had a good bread knife. Number two would be a Chef's knife. Number three I guess a paring knife. I don't need a set of steak knives or a big...

    Lowest Price Paid

    Thread Starter: DirtDiver

    I have been shaving with the DE for about a month now, and while I really like that I wanted to try out a straight. Seeing the prices at places like AoS I was initially put off to it, then I did some ebay searching and I saw some that were REALLY cheap... like this one or this. Now, they kind of...
