Thread: Straight Razor Mag

It appears that the last additions to that were in 2013. What is there is certainly interesting. The are zines that are regular published electronic versions of magazines, but I have not seen one for wet shaving that one could subscribe to. I too would buy a regular publication in print or electronic format if it was available and had reasonable content.

Thanks to the age of the internet, magazines are starting to go the way of the Dodo!

TBH, this forum seems to be the best form of a magazine in today's (old school) standards. I think?

A SOTD coffee-table book would be sweet.

"A SOTD coffee-table book would be sweet."

I'd buy that.

That would be sweet. It would be cool to have something in print like that. Perhaps we need to get our resident graphic artist on that one.
Sometimes it would be nice to have something you could download and read when you don’t have Internet. I suppose for most of the people here that is very rare.

Rez, you use Apple products right?

If so, many sites, this one as well, have reader version available. You can use that on your iPad so when there's no internet you still have full access to what you saved

Sorry to go OT a bit, but I love my iPhone and iPad. Mostly because I'm a Audiophile that's really into Jazz. Apple devices are centered around being music machines first and foremost. Apple Music is not an App that runs on its own like on a Droid. Apple Music is PART of the iPhone's architecture. It's amazing. Great cameras are 2nd on an iPhone.
They do design them with awesome cameras and features for the camera. And for sure they are designed to be easy to use, although some of the features don't make sense to me, so I have to think about them. I also own an Android and a Chromebook (Droid OS) and love them for business and for general use, but my iOS products are just plain fun. And for internet magazines? The iPad is fantastic. Good point there, sir.

I'd buy a Coffee Table book on Wet Shaving too. In a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, outside of this group and a teeny tiny percentage of the reading public, no one else would buy a coffee table book about "Shaving". So it would not be feasible to publish one. The cost of publication would be very high, and there would be no hope of breaking even on production cost, let alone making a profit. The only way it would work is by volunteer donations toward the publication, with some very generous donations required before it became a reality.

I remember trying to bring up the topic of Wet Shaving at another Forum totally unrelated to shaving - in the "Off-Topic" area of the Forum. You would have thought I walked into a funeral parlor buck naked. Those guys thought I had lost my mind thinking that shaving was something anyone would do as an avocation, let alone getting any pleasure out of having to shave. The consensus was that I was crazy and that 99.999 percent of the men in the world that have to shave, hate to shave.
