Thread: Rinsing the blade

I rinse mine under the tap.

If it were easier, you could wipe the lather off of the
blade onto your palm, which you could then dispose of
however you wished.

Giovanni at razorandbrush.com used to stock this cool
rubber dish made for removing lather from a straight
blade... I wonder if anyone here has tried it before?

I rinse and wipe. Sadly, I learned the hard way to rinse with the spine facing the faucet. It's not that I'm too lazy to just wipe the blade to remove the soap, it's that the warm blade feels nice against my skin. I do, in fact, wipe the blade after rinsing to get rid of any remaining soap residue and excess water.
