if you take an abrasive like a sanding stick... and run it in the numbers, and roughen up the surface a tad.....

you should try the blade more then once before changing to a different one. I am currently doing a review of a whole crap load of blades I purchased this month. And am working one blade to end of useful shaving life before using a new blade of that brand in one of my other razors.

I finally found an ever ready k40 pure badger on ebay, with original box. the seller claims unused, but I can see a scumline where badger meets handle..... the price is a tad big high, regardless of having the original box, or of it being almost immaculate. I mean, yes its nice looking, but is...

the little missed patches, are most likely located at the spots you start and stop the razor while shaving? I have a hunch that is the case, its a very common thing. one reads about short strokes, but when one stops often, it can be very hard to start the razor again at the very spot you...

for some reason I take it "hai" Is a mans name in Indonesia......... I have always disliked the forums system settings when trying to type in the thread title, always jumping to it from inside the first sentence of the actual thread.

overall impressions, the packaging is very nice. its sterile, business like. The wax is barely visible after the first shave, that I really cant say if it had wax holding blade to wrapper. 1st shave, 1953 Korean war tech cella as usual, blade was sharp. Had more face feel then platinum plus...

hey perhaps a good black market idea here. a stick of Palmolive in trade for a pack of Chinese schicks? sound good fellas?

if no swirling is allowed, why so many soap companies telling us to swirl the brush around on our puck of soap to create lather? is it some industry scam to make us kill our brushes out fast.... and in a way that we cant get replacements for shoddy brushes?

very underwhelming in appearance. for that price level, a razor shouldn't look like some color blind guy in shri lanka assembled it after grabbing parts from random bins.

I really really hope that's not you. I just fruckin luves shave videos that start with a guy who is already fully shaved up....so standard of videos these days. there are a lot of things I dislike and despise about executive shaving. prices on vintage razors, their line of relabeled shaving...

the slim is an abomination, the shave angle is very narrow, and for most people its a bad one. at least for my sensitive skin and tough as hell facial hair. The best adjustables are the fat boy and the super adjustable.

the temptation to try out lots of soaps is fine, a lot of soaps are paraded around as being the miracle cure for everything, but most in fact are um..... about as lame as a president in their last week of office. the urge to keep things the same for every shave is good, and one of the better...

{Mod edit - Rudeness removed.} Now where was I, hmmm ok. The traditional forum rule of use one blade for the first few months of using a real razor can be seen as good. "keep the variants to a minimum" but... for those with sensitive skin and heavy hair..... sure it might be good if the...

just about anything beats the stuff in cans they sell, as well as the gels they sell. Its just that people, after decades of being indoctrinated to cartridge shavers and the crap in a cap..... they feel its the only choice.

prior experience on your part trying to save the cost of a snow cone? when you create a test that puts your least favorite brushes at a disadvantage from the start, and gives your favorite brush an advantage from the word go... how can that be an honest evaluation

And when you pick things out for the person, please, only get decent things that will be useful. Don't get the van der hagen brush and bowl set for example. say they like vintage cars, go online and look for a decent cereal bowl and try to get it with a photo of their favorite vintage car in...

frank shaving and maggards have a few interesting looking badgers, but the problem is that in the world of badger, you can get a great brush for little money, or you can get a great brush for a whole lot. or you can a whole lot, and get a very crappy brush. or spend very little and get a very...

face feel is the thing that has a lot of people hesitant. I love love love love love my vintage ever ready k40 pure badger, but to get anything close to that quality today.. I need to look at silver tip at a bare minimum. this is what brush makers have told me. now the thing is, the...

and now on the cvs or wahlgreen website I see an orange pack of deby extra, a 10 pack. now larger groups can suffer ...
