What's new

What razor/blade did you use today

Karve f SB plate, feather with about 5 shaves on it. Tabac, had about the best shave ever at least matching anything I have had. I found shaving twice a week seems to give me less irritation and weepers. Ogallala bay rum and sandalwood as, my woman hated it before , I love the lasting smell. She didn't mention anything so maybe she's warming up to it.
