Anyone have any info on this:

There's also a white one that I was thinking of getting for the misses.

Are they any good?

Handle looks very different to what I've seen before.

cheers

It's a bad pic, but I'll take a stab and say that it's a Knack.

+1 on the Knack

Unless you're from Europe then it is called Slim Twist.
But £7.99 is way too much in my opinion.

If I can find them, they go for about £1.2-2.4 in recycling shops or some antique stores where they just want to get rid of them.

This one was just above the pound.

Thank you that helps a lot.

I was going to buy the white one he/she is selling, but I will leave it now.

THANK YOU

I agree that they are very similar, but the TTO collar is quite a bit longer on the Knack, FWIW.

The rest of your advice is quite sound.

guys, when mantic dips his razor into water to rinse after every stroke, does he dip it into the sink? cos at the end of his WTG passes, he cups water into his hands from the sink water and puts it on his face. Then he starts his ATG passes..

Does that mean his 'hairy' water was used to wash his face?

i think so.

I use my hairy water... it is, after all, my hair. (though i do a cold water rinse last, so thats not hairy water)

Or you could ask me.

Yes, I splash the icky, scummy, hairy water onto my face between lathers. Its just to give my skin a damp base for the lather to "lock in." After my shave is finished I do a thorugh final rinse with clean, warm water running from the tap.
