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?

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.

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.

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.
