I have been wiping my blade off and drying it at the end of my shave and rinsing it off under water in between every few strokes. Is there a problem just rinsing the blade under water during the shave to remove cream/stubble?

I thought about a sea sponge..but..my blade is a hefty and wide 7/8. I think something puffy big and rounded would help..I keep seeing o cello sponges but..hmmm..are they wipe worthy...all I have to do is fill this shave gap..I already ordered my black shaving scuttle (moss) from SRD...great prices with quality products including my black 3" latigo strop..will post when I get everything ;-)
I think you are over thinking this.
Wipe on your shirt
wipe on your arm
wipe on some toilet paper
wipe on a towel
wipe on a cow
wipe on a sham wow
umm...with the last comment..just add the words slice/scrape/cut/nick/scratch/tear to each of yer suggestions..really?..and yes I will be wiping my blade on surface of my bathroom counter top which is porcelain
Ummm,
I just wipe the blade off between thumb and forefinger and then wipe my fingers on a towel. I haven't dinged a finger yet.
There really shouldn't be any risk of "slice/scrape/cut/nick/scratch/tear" when wiping the blade, as anyone who has gotten this far with their shave has likely already figured out the difference between the directions for stropping vs shaving.
There is a pic of a guys finger than required 4-6 stitches..no way in hell im gonna put my blade to my fingers..gimme a break!..yea I do wipe of a little cream very lightly but I try to avoid doing this
I use basic white facecloths.
Why white? So I can bleach the heck out of them to ensure they are clean.
How do yyou clean goop, stubble and bio-load from a sponge?
Ok will give a yella sham wow sponge a try as I found plenty of clean ones..will update in a few days
lol @ cheesegrader face! ;-p
