After selling razors for 6 months when I was laid off I decided to give one a try and now I'm hooked and collecting the darn things. So I join B&B to learn the old ways of wet shaving and find out that finding the DE's or Tech's with the bars straight wasn't the easiest thing to do. So in my quest of selling & trading to get my collection like I wanted the little woman whats to give one a try. What do I hear Tap Tap Tap on a nice adjustable slim one night. OMG I say and promptly try and save the day but the damage is done. What I find is something to share with the new people taking up this fine art. Don't tap the razor to clean it just a swish in the water. What happened is bending the ends created a bind when open and closing the doors and it took hours to straighten it out.
