    Default As seen on TV!

    Just wanted to share this I saw during my workday. I work in a newsroom, where I'm surrounded by TV monitors, and in one of the channels there was this infomercial showing a guy pitching a double edge razor, blades and a sheath for $19.99. the adress was onerazor.com. I found it interesting that he explined the crappiness of the plastic fantastic multiblades. I wonder if it will lead to the big manufacturers making DE razors again. Anyway it was interesting to see, that they see a market niche for classic wetshaving.

    That guy is the owner of a very famous pawn shop in Vegas.

    Yes, he compares an old razor with the new one he's selling. Maybe that's how he got the idea, people looking for vintage DEs or straights.

    I saw this too. Being a long time DE shaver I had to chuckle. Hopefully there will be a resurrection of wet shaving. Maybe one day we will be able to go to the big box stores an get the products we need. At least a better selection then what is out there now. Wishful thinking I know.

    Yes, that's a possibility. I also wish that at least we could get a better selection of shaving related products.

    Although as much as we would like to have the stuff locally available, If we did that would hurt the online sights that we all order from. An for the most part they are all great businesses. So take what ya can lol
