    Default Traveling screw up...can anyone help?

    The family have left the comfy confines of Houston Texas, and we are spending the week in Destin Florida. Like a good boy i packed every thing for shaving, and I had the great intentions of putting the strop in the bag to complete my kit.....i know its lounging on my bed at home.......

    Anyway, here i sit contemplating grabbing the M3 and going to town on the face....

    Yep, lots of emotions there. Anyway, is there anyone in the Destin area that might have a loner that I could mail back when I get home next week? If not, ill just tell my face that it has been very, very bad lately, and this is what it gets for it....

    If you have a wide, flat leather belt, that will work in a pinch.

    Good luck,

    Thanks Mark. I thought of that too, but did i mention im in Destin?

    Think fruty drinks, shorts, and flip-flops.

    I think belts and dressy clothes are outlawed in the city limits.

    You can also strop on the meaty part of your palm or on a newspaper. In fact, if there's a page with a lot of black ink, the ink is slightly abrasive and will also polish the razor.

    Now thats an idea i had not thought about. I brought two razors, so I guess its worth a try with the wedge...its very forgiving. Thanks.

    If you find that you nick your strop frequently, you might want to pick up a newspaper and forget about the arm
