Our Shaving Den (Revisited)

[Mendel]

Gilligan & I made some subtle changes to our shaving den and wanted to share some pictures with you. By the way, we keep our overflow brushes in our office and our extra razors under the sink in storage shelves. Also, we don't share our shaving den with my wife. And now, the pictures:

Nice. Uncluttered. Well organized.

Looks like a very enjoyable place to spend a leisurely shave in.

My over flow is flowing over which is making clutter and an overall less nice place to shave

 

[cryhavoc]

Very nice and neat, it makes mine look very unorganized. I think I'll go rearrange it now.

 

[Toothpick]

I'll grab my dopp bag and be there in 8 hours. Keep the water warm!

I like the tubes of MAAS..... just don't mistake those for a tube of Marvis toothpaste.

I love your T&H 'Moonjava'!

I had Rudy Vey replace the original knot in the Moonjava with a Shavemac Silvertip knot.

 

[BlackBear]

Great set up! Love it

Nice, neat and organized. I like it!

Mendel, it looks great and very well organized! i had no idea you were using straights! How is that going?

 

[Topgumby]

Great stuff, but not for me. If I had my gear that organized, I'd feel like I was in front of a Company formation when it was time to shave. I can see the Red Tip now, holding the Gillette guidon.

Not the relaxing vibe I need, but to each his own.

It would be kinda cool if I could get my razors to "pass in review", however.

Still testing straights. I received one in a PIF and another on loan. I don't want to break the bank on a new straight razor but would love to find a Wapienica.

How did you find this picture of me and my teeth? BTW, isn't that the guy that played Lurch on the Adam's Family?

Nope. Think Bond during his silly period.

It's O.K. to disagree agreeably. I simply hate clutter and disorganization. I feel there is no need to show the world all of my razors, soaps, brushes on a countertop. Less is more.

Don't get me wrong, Mendel, I'm even a little envious of your sterling organizational skills...although I think Gilligan may be behind some of it.

I console myself by thinking that without my Oscar Madison, the Felix Ungers of this world wouldn't look nearly as good by comparison.

 

[Mendel]

Nope. Think Bond during his silly period.

You are right! Richard Kiel played "Jaws" in the Bond films whereas Ted Cassidy played Lurch. But didn't Richard Kiel (Jaws) ply in the original version of the The Longest Yard as one of Burt Reynold's inmate players?

Went to dinner with my wife and you still have not arrived!
