I have been asking myself the same question. I have enjoyed the TECH immensely, but I have been wondering if grandpa knew something I didn't?

I'm gonna find out. My Whipped dog sight unseen deal...

Wish me luck with my first straight razor shave. Hopefully I will not cut my nose off.

I ordered a whipped dog sight unseen deal. It shipped today. I can't wait!!!!! My adventure into straight razor shaving has begun...

I hope no one was injured. Everything else can be sorted out.

Prometheus in IMax 3D. The cinema at the Greene Town Center in Beavercreek Ohio has half price on Wednesday nights. It was better knowing I paid half price. ;-)

It is worth seeing. The economy...

I use a number 4 on top, 2 on the sides. 1 at the edge of the hair line using an angle where the tip of the guard is at a roughly 90 degree angle.
Then I remove the guard, set the clipper aside,...

Are you a professional photographer? You always have great pic's.

The Gillette Super Stainless get a mixed review. Quick work above the jaw line and uncomfortable below the jaw line.

Not spoiled.

Tomorrow's postponed TECH Tuesday shave. Gonna get spoiled!

Cut my hand and spent last night in the emergency room. My TECH Tuesday is rescheduled till tomorrow. I think I'll break out a NOS blade I found at a garage sale. I might actually shave this PM,...

I picked up the buy two get one free deal!!!

This stuff rox!

Thanks for the support guys!!! I have really missed a real shave. Loading the TECH tonight for tomorrow's shave. I got three good shaves out of the Fusion... then... I actually had light bruising...

TECH Tuesday Blasphemy...

I have been working more than one job lately and both have gotten busy.

The last 4 days including today... I resorted to my Fusion in order to get out the door on...

Yesterday... TECH, Voshkod, grape seed oil, CO Bigelow, Vie Long 13061 and cold water.

Not necessarily in that order.

Great combo.

Nice score on the TECH in the wild!!!

Digging on the CO Bigelow now that mother nature decided to deprive us of spring. Splash cold water after and OOOOHHHH... AAAHHHH... goodness.

I might be doing that as well. I LIKE IT.

Straight grape seed oil is what I use. I use as pre shave, do 2 passes with soap, third pass with just grape seed oil, then cold water rinse and more grape seed oil. For a while there I was doing...

Lucky, my stray. I'm lucky to have her and she's lucky to have a home. Hence... 'Lucky'.

She came around just before Thanksgiving in 2010. I think she was 7 or 8 when I found her.

About two weeks ago I decided to reward myself with a small tube of CO Bigelow. I have been using it daily since. I'm not sure I will like it as much in the winter as the summer... but with this...

My first DE shave and also first shave with a Fat Boy... I set it on 9.

Don't do that to yourself. At least not on the first shave.

And an attorney. I wish you all the best in weighing your options and coming to a decision.

No Pic's but...

I added CO Bigelow shaving soap this past week. A very satisfying choice. I am now practicing full TECH - Fu and doing one pass with blade buffing and achieving a very good shave.

Good luck with popping the question.

I bought a small tube of that this morning. I will try it out at the latest... TECH Tuesday. Probably tomorrow morning.

Congratulations!!!

I use Grape Seed Oil. It works great. YMMV

I bought a small tube of CO Bigelow shave cream this morning. I'll update everyone this coming TECH Tuesday.

Great pictures Thanks!

Please put your two cents in on the open debate of Gillette TECH, TECH clone or TECH head on an aftermarket / new production handle.

There is a first and a second to limit this thread to TECH head's only. The floor is open for input.

Post your two cents here... (hope I don't regret saying that!!!)

Sweet

I got mine from a thrift store that specializes in estate clean outs. It is a Fat Handle TECH with the 'triangular slots'. The razor is in very good condition. I assume it came from an estate...

TECH Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Friday and Saturday were shaves in a hurry. I was in a rush. Slightly uncomfortable shaves. Friday was worse than Saturday. Saturday I did one pass. This...

Before and after photo's are awesome!!!!!!

Sometimes going against the grain beats me up.

Pictures are always welcome.

I have migrated completely away form TTO shaver's. Just a personal preference and have no reason other than personal preference to like 3 piece shavers.

Just me.
