Thread: I found the Secret to Shaving!!!

Let me tell you how this all started. My grandfather passed away 2 years ago. When I was packing all his stuff I found some old double edge razors. Now when I started shaving I found that I have sensitive skin and have always used an electric razor. So I started to learn DE shaving, a few cuts here and there and trying 10 or 12 razors with different blades I was off. A BBS was easy after about 3 or 4 months. Now on with the rest of then story. I thought how great it would be to try a strait. Wow what a learning curve. After many razors that I bought shave ready???? About 12 or 13 I was about to give up. Then in looking at razors I found the answer. It was not so much the razor its who hones it to be shave ready. I sent 5 straits out to be honed, cleaned and polished, A Dubl Duck, NOS Revisor, Wainwright, Genco and a NOS Scharff Kober & company. Hoping one of them would do the job. In about two days I got a call that they were ready. So I waited if it did not work I was quitting and going back to DE.I had found the answer it was MAX http://www.vintagestraightrazors.com/

The razors are amazing they looked better then new. That nights shave was awesome!!! Yes I am still learning but that was best shave. I now have a great starting point. I know what the secret is Max saved me. He was a great help and a true gentleman.

Thank you Max
