I went on ebay and got a cheap blade dulled the edge and now he shaves with me when he wants.

Thanked: 375I got my 4 yr. old son a WECK disposable sans the blade, sometimes he'll shave with me other times he's sitting at the table polishing his razor up while I do mine. He has a vintage Gillette DE too....hopefully creating some good memories!

Whilst i do think it's a great idea to encourage the mockery, and I'm not really a safety ninny _at all_, I do have some reservations about this and the super young.
If i were going to do it, I'd put a lock on the real razors until kiddo was near enough to sprouting hairs to understand pain and danger.
Does this make me a chick?

I made some for my grandson who got a kick out of watching me shave with a str8. So, I took some scales I screwed up, made some blades out of acrylic and put them together, I later took some old damaged blades, rounded the edges to replace the acrylic. Also made him one of my Old West Style Razor Racks I had screwed up, gave him my old scuttle (gravy warmer) when I got my Robert Becker scuttle, gave him my old bore brush and an old strop. Now he can go through the whole process, just like Papaw! Sometimes when I'm shaving he wants to stand beside me and play shave, even makes his own lather...not bad for a 7 year old!
When he gets old enough to shave I have a 1959 Gillette Fat Boy for him to start out on. By then he will also be familiar with the basics of shaving with a str8. I just hope he will want to follow in his Papaw's foot steps.............."If You Knew Half of What I Forgot You Would Be An Idiot" - by DoughBoy68
