    Donjae Razors

    Thread Starter: Soldierdan

    I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with this brand of "Shavette". I'm considering buying one on ebay, and all I know about them is that the look amazing. I was hoping someone amongst those of the forums would be able to tell me a little about them. ...

    Hello

    Thread Starter: wrightro

    Hello everyone, I am a long time lurker and now a member. I thought it was about time to jump in. I am a shaving enthusiast. I got my first DE razor after from my parents after college (1970 Gillette Super Adjustable long handle) and after that I was hooked. Since then I have purchased a couple...

    First Fat Boy Shave - And General Thoughts On Vintage Gillettes

    Thread Starter: Jeff_H

    So I won a fantastic Fat Boy in a PIF a couple of weeks ago. It arrived on Saturday and I didn't have time to shave with it until Monday. I put in a brand new Gillette Silver Blue and, using my less than stellar experience with the Slim Adjustable, set the adjustment dial to 3 and vowed to keep...

    Anniversary PIF

    Thread Starter: Chadao

    Howdy Folks. I have learned so much at B&B and the people here are so great, I have decided to PIF a $25 Gift Certificate from my favorite store, West Coast Shaving. This is to celebrate my upcoming 1,000th post. I doubt that post will possess any profundity, probably just the blade or soap I used...

    Sticking your razor sets in a dark, musty old drawer: NOT the way to display them!

    Thread Starter: _MementoMori_

    It's funny - you really don't enjoy these things as much when you have to pull open a dresser drawer just to look at them. Who'da thunk it? I need a display case, but I'm a designer and a furniture snob so one that would meet my approval would cost more than I'm able to spend! My wife is an...

    What's your favourite pen for the office and why?

    Thread Starter: maxman

    Quite a while ago I decided the best pen for the office was a Parker 51. My reasons were: 1. It has a slip on cap. I like that because I'm always jotting something down quick. 2. It is built to last. I don't have to be overly careful about it. 3. It's super easy to fill. So what pens do you...

    Soap scents/fragrances

    Thread Starter: gdavila

    I'm looking to try some new soaps. Are there any other quality artisan soaps out there with scents as good as mystic water soaps? I really love the scents of mystic water soaps and I'm wondering if there is anything else like it out there?
