B&B membership has its percs
Today was a good day in the mailbox, after Larry the Postdude hauled off the bills I was paying he left me an unexpected check from a recent refinancing and a tattered box from the Bay of Fleas ..
The outside of the box was pretty lame (think cereal box re-purposed) and inside was the razor, which I didn't notice was armed with an old blade, wrapped in re-used bubble wrap.
After recalling I'd had a recent tetanus shot, and staunching the bleeding, I tried to unscrew the head, frozen of course in place by the old blade ..
Good news is that a drop of Kroil allowed me to take it apart, and pitch the thankfully stainless blade. Cleaned up pretty good, will be trying me most recent "all stainless" razor later on.

. I've bought many razors that come that way as well. It can't ever be a new blade, can it? It's always the 50 year old, stained, rusted, green and blue, grungy, crappy blade adhered by rust in there.
