I have a rotation of eight or so razors, some vintage and some modern. I also have some lone handles that I swap in and out for variety, so there are a lot of moving parts.
Last week I grabbed a modern day, highly regarded razor and started my shave. At the end of the first pass I think to myself, "Hmph, it has been a while but it seems louder than usual..." I get done with the second pass and realize my face - well, it felt like it had been abraded. Did I stop? Of course not. I start in on the third pass and then it occurred to me, "Something is just not right." So I take a closer look at the razor and...
I tightened the loose handle so it was snug.
Let's just say I did not apply Cat O' Nine Tails that morning!
And yes, The Captain was going through some shave balm for the next few days. GOODNESS!
