    Personna Meds vs. Feathers

    Thread Starter: Ron Scott

    I've been using these 2 for the past couple months and I'm thinking of switching exclusively to the Meds. So far, especially with the first shave, the Meds give me all the closeness of the Feathers, and I almost never fail the Alum Test (sting) with them. The Feathers give an absolutely great...

    Night shaving

    Thread Starter: Suggy

    I've always been a morning shaver, when I get up. This week I started shaving at night. It makes a bit more sense now that I have my kids every other week and I can use the extra time in the morning. Luckily, I don't have that dark or thick of a beard so no shadow or real scruff till in the evening...

    365 Shaves

    Thread Starter: Shave_Rat

    So someone mentioned in the 2013 Restraint about shaving each and every day to help use up product, so this is a thread for anyone looking to get a shave every day in 2013 to track progress, challenges, and how we got by them, as well as some SOTD pics, I'm sure. My first shave of the year was a...

    Straight Razor May

    Thread Starter: Archer808

    I've been DE shaving for about nine months now. I purchased a straight razor on the B/S/T about five months ago and have successfully shaved with it around ten times. It has become my lazy Sunday routine (when I actually have a lazy Sunday) to straight shave. Although I was able to achieve a...

    Opinions on Suunto watches?

    Thread Starter: Teflon_Synapses

    Hey guys, Im looking into picking up a Suunto watch. Im currently looking at the Core and the X Lander Military. I have done some research, but felt I needed the opinions of the fine gentleman here. Does one have a major benefit over the other? How do the leather straps on the core look...

    My (limited) experience with apparent face and bowl lathering differneces

    Thread Starter: athair

    I have no intent to start any arguments. I know a lot of people have a strong preference for one technique or another, this is just my very limited current perspective from my very limited experience. I've been wet shaving for a couple months and I've only tried one cream and two soaps. Of the...
