    I'll tell you a secret. Uncle Jethro likes the burn too and he just applies some battery acid mixed with some rose water on his face. he says it's really bracing to the skin. Har Har.

    Ya...not so much for smelling like listerine. I thank you though I might try that just for the heck of it.
    I have found a couple of tricks to get the burn: one, I added an extra pass; two, Osage rub; three, custom aftershave splash.

    I think the original amber Listerine that comes in the "atomic bomb cylindar" is 22-26% alcohol. I also use the Osage Rub, and I like it a lot. A generous application will even make my eyes tear up a bit from the menthol.

    Geez Victor! Maybe you should try some charcoal lighter fluid and a match!

    Easiest way to find the burn IMO is to use a razor I have honed and my technique. 100% guarantee to find the burn....Just saying
