rockviper's straight journey 2.0
Thread Starter: rockviper
I was using straights back in early 2011 and ended up selling them after a mishap or two. Still have the small battlescars, but that didn't deter me from wanting to eventually get back in the game. I thought it would be another 10 years or so, but then a beautiful kami came on the BST last month...

Shave_rat's Just another journal
Thread Starter: Shave_Rat
So this was actually me second straight razor shave,close to the same results as the first one. Happy to report, still no nicks/cuts/weepers, and no real sign of burn, bumps, irritation. Guess I'm getting something right. Razor is a Genco, made in Geneva, NY. I'm guessing 5/8 and half hollow,...

First impressions of La Toja
Thread Starter: tinashubby
It lathers about the same as Arko (exceptional and easy), the scent is not like Arko, but still very nice, but I am fighting a cold right now. My only criticism would be that it didn't seem slick enough to do blade buffing without reapplying. I assume this is because it lacks tallow, but heck I...

The "Futur" moves ahead
Thread Starter: PDman
I've been shaving with this for the past couple weeks and am very very impressed. An outstanding shave. For comparison, I also have a Feather AS-D2, Ikon OSS, Muhle R89, Merkur 34C, Merkur 1904 OC and Gillette Slim Adjustable. The Futur has taken its position as starter in the rotation. However, I...

Newbie question regarding creams/soft soaps
Thread Starter: ClintO
With tubs of soft soaps or harder creams and stuff... do you use your finger and put it in a bowl or load your brush directly from the tub?
