What's new

My Marine neighbor is a convert.

So last night as I was working on restoring a straight razor my neighbor come over and asks me about my shaving gear. He said his Sargent (or some Superior) said he wasn't shaving well enough and it looked bad. He sometimes shaves twice a day. So I showed him my gear and loaned him a ball end Gillette that I picked up at an antique store recently and cleaned up but haven't used. I also loaned him a boar brush a few different blades and a tube of C.O. Bigelow. I gave him a few pointers and he tried it out at my sink. He bid a great job and was happy with the results. After the shave I had him smell my after shaves. He went through them and then grabbed the Lilac Vegetal and said "This smells like my grandpa's bathroom" and splashed it on. When he left with his gear he tried to take the Veg with him. I had to stop that :001_tt2:.

I was talking to him today and he said he remembered his mother having his grandfathers DE's so he called her and she is shipping them out next week. Also when he got home his wife made him wash off the Veg!
