Thread: Shaving Drip Bowl

I know Bushdoctor has a red one in a crystal bowl. I just got this one for myself. I would like to know if anyone else is using one of these? I have only used mine once and I have fallen in love with it. It just seems better to use it to wipe the lather off the blade mid-shave rather than rinse it in the sink.

Hmm...

Nope, I don't understand that at all!
Are you wiping on the rim of the bowl? Wouldn't that damage the blade's edge?

You have my curiosity goin.....where do you get'em and how do they work ?

I'm interested in this one too. What's the scoop?

I dunno. Unless it is some super-soft plastic/rubber. Looks like a plastic pet bowl, no offence. I will stick to stropping the lather/hairs off on the folded face-towell on the side of the sink untill I see different! Makes it nice to see how effective you are. No chance of damage!

It is made of a soft rubber and I found it at royalshave.com. What I do is a light wipe of the blade on the rim to take off the lather and it goes in the bowl until I rinse it.

Ah! It should work good then!

Never used that, just a cheap dampened sponge in a container on the sink counter to wipe the cream off on. Don't see why the bowl would not work also. The only thing I don't like is having to shake the water off or putting up with it running down the razor or dripping off when rinsing in water. Using a damp sponge eliminated that for me.

Interesting ! Guess I'll have to get on their website and check that out. Thanks for the info !

I've never seen the rubber ones but I have seen the old wax ones. In fact, I think there's a pic of one of the wax ones somewhere here in SRP. Looks like the wax sealing rings for toilets.
