    Let me just con the wife into getting one of everything first. Then i can start telling her that the first one broke and really do need to replace it. That is how you do things with a very practical wife.

    I already had her say to me "I thought this was going to be cheaper"? I guess she is ok with it since I when I walk past a Coach store I start to shake.

    So true!

    SWMBO and I are looking to move at the moment and I keep finding places with a cellar... Strange that!

    Dont fight the AD's though, they are your friend!

    SWMBO just lowered the hammer on me. There will be NO new shaving equipment of any kind coming into my houshold for an indefinite period of time. Period!

    This is the "professional" help my RAD and I have been needing

    It starts with one.


    And then I said "How about I buy a cheap ebay razor to clean up and practice restoring on"


    And after 4 months, that 'extra' turned into a dozen. Plus a few hones.. Plus a newer fancier strop (BTW the guides are spot on when they say don't fall in love with your first strop. I destroyed my first)


    I really, really never expected this to be my favorite hobby. I thought it was just a cooler, better way to shave.
