I wanna say I found my blade. I have been using sharks, and have been relatively satisfied with the smoothness, but coming from a mach 3 it WAS a lot better. However, the Astra gets that real fine stubble a lot better in my opinion. I havent been brave enough to go at the feathers yet, since Im...

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!

Hey folks, I am a traditional wet shaver for about an year now and it has hit me deep, I must say, I have been infected with AD, particularly SBAD. :drool: After more than a good dozen of safety razors, including slants and OCs, my current favorite is Merkur 25C. I am more a fan of hard...

Straight Razor May

It has become my lazy Sunday routine (when I actually have a lazy Sunday) to straight shave. Although I was able to achieve a...
