INteresting thing, i went to ship off some razors today. few doors down from the cigar shop is the packaging store (where I buy boxes before going next door to USPS), same owner as cigar shop. they know that I'm sending razors, two older ladies, we talk when I go in, they like seeing the blades. they say they are doing shaves down at the cigar shop.

I go down there, turns out that this is a barber that is just about a block or two away from the other barber I found out does straight razor shaves (for 8 bucks, but I've yet to try it). the shop is putting this on for their cigar club members. he's got the hot towels, brush. doing the whole thing. EXCEPT using a DE. shop owner was telling me that he can do it in half the time and with 20 people to go through it counts. I didn't want to interrupt the barber while he was working but the cigar shop owner told me he thinks that its bout 10 bucks and that he will use your straight.

I think I may have to try one of these guys out. probably the one I already knew about first, as he is a knife maker I have bought from before and is older (late 50's, early 60's) so likely has more experience. although probably they are all rusty.

just thought I'd mention it. surprising to me.
