Hello everyone.
I've been wet shaving for a year and a half now. This is my first and only razor. Last night I dropped the razor in my sink and the thread on the top cap sheared right off. I was about to change the blade. So it was loosened slightly when it slipped out of my hands. It's toast. My wife is actually more upset then I am. I'm a really simple easy going guy. She gets happy when I find something I really enjoy.
For some reason every time I take a real vacation I have nothing but bad luck when I get back home. Vacation was incredible. Weather was great. The kids got along. My wife didn't fight with her sisters. Enjoyed cigars with my brother in law.
We get home. My wife starts the second load of laundry and the washing machine breaks. Next morning I get up to go to work and my car throws and check engine light and idles erratically. Hopefully bad luck does come in threes because I'm done.
With these other 2 expenses I'm on hold for ordering a new razor for at least a month maybe 2 since back to school is coming up. I can wait though. I still have my brush and soaps to enjoy.
This is probably a good time to try something new. I'll probably go with a merkur slant or the r41 unless I can find something vintage. I've been checking the local antique shops all summer. There's nothing but a couple of straights.
Sorry for the long post but I had to let it out.
