I'm sick and tired of the poor behaviour by men!
Thread Starter: Mark1966
It has been a torrid couple of weeks Down Under. Last year our female Prime Minister had a famous spray in Parliament shown here following demeaning sexist comments from the former Speaker of the House which got world wide airplay and became the cause célèbre of the feminist movement. More...

Following the outline of Beard with Double Edge Safety Razor?
Thread Starter: TAZORAC
As I've stated before, I have a safety razor, but I've haven't used it yet being that I have to use up disposable razors I have. The question is, is it easy to follow the outline of your beard with a safety razor, because I usually have various facial hair styles, from Mutton Chops to this,...

Thread Starter: NingYupOwaDat

R41 2013 Difference From 2011?
Thread Starter: SpEe1113
Hi all, i just received my new R41 Rosegold edition razor in the mail, ordered directly from Mühle. I've been searching various threads to see if there's an easy way to make sure I got the 2013 version instead of the 2011 version. Aside from measuring is there another way to tell? I didn't see...

First shave with a slant.
Thread Starter: Link1
Hello B&B, Today I took the leap, hopped the pond, kicked the bucket...... I shave using my Merkur 39C. As a first shave it was not bad in a horrible sense. There was nay a drop of blood nor any abrasions. But.. I did noticed that the shave was way less satisfactory than a normal shave with my...

5 shaves.or 5 days?
Thread Starter: Sendit
Ok guys, so I am on day 3 of my Astra Premium blades and things are going well. As a new DE shaver, I have limited my shaves to two passes WTG. It seems that the blade is losing some of its edge, leading to a slight irritation. I think this is caused because I find myself pressing to compensate for...

Derby Disappearance ?
Thread Starter: malocchio
I always liked the Turkish Derby cream.You can get at least 4 different scents that I know of,and Amazon has them for about $1.25 per tube,shipped free,when you buy a dozen.That's a hard price to beat,and a good utilitarian cream.I always considered the Derby Lux,from Hungarian Caola corp. to be...

Help me identify these antique Gillettes
Thread Starter: jestah93
I bought these two cased Gillette DE razors this weekend at a local antique store. When I bought them I had a general idea that they were probably from the 20s-30s, and I was struck by them because of their cases and blue blades. I came by them for $20 apiece. When I came home I immediately...
