I received Maxim magazine in the mail the other day. There is an article on straight shaving that was not done very well. It was heartening to see the press, because as they say, any press is good press, but I was disappointed in the information it gave. I will scan in the page and post it in a bit. Did anyone else see this?

pretty crappy huh?

and what is up with the picture where it looks like he is shaving backwards?

Well the stropping itself is sounding incorrect to me. And I like how they add in the honing with the strop.

I like how they say to keep the spine lifted when stropping.

Do I feel some letters to the Editor coming on?

If so, I looked up the address.

Why alcohol-free after shave? I like the alcohol.

I really believe that I will have to write a letter to the editor.. Maybe we should place a push for the site to reference on how to really use a Straight Razor.
