What's new

New to B&B Wet shaving from day one.

Hello all,
Joined last month out of interest and knowledge. I have been wet shaving for about 50+ years, it's the only way that I know. I used the take apart Gillette that the US Army provided in 1966 until I purchased a Black Beauty in 1987 (H-3). I have used it since and I don't know how but it is still in great shape....lol. Recently I guess I have gotten a little nostalgic and am not collecting but acquiring a few vintage user grade items. Love this site.
Regards, Tony

Welcome to B&B, Tony! Glad to have you here with us. I think it's awesome that you've been using the same razor for the past 30 years. Now that you've picked up a few more, is your Black Beauty still your go-to razor?
 
Hi Tony welcome to B&B! Nice to know you've been able to hold onto your Gillette for so many years.
Cheers
Stan

Welcome to Badger and Blade, Smith.

You used that Army razor in 1966, buy I quickly gave up on a DE razor . I forgot to say that I was in the US Army in 1966.

I went to an electric shaver.
 
Welcome to B&B, Tony. I still shave on occasion with my Slim and FB that I bought when they first came out.

You are correct. A month ago I knew little to nothing about razors and brushes. Now I have l have learned a lot about razors and m about to re-knot 3 brushes that Ive had for a while.
