Which one would you pick.......
Hey guys so i thought i would pose a question to everyone that is somewhat unique........
there was a post recently, that of course i can't find now, that a member was taking some of his razor to the local barber to chat about the hobby and what not and there was a reply that posed the question if you could take your own razor to a barber to get a shave since now a days most, if not all (all here in chicago all must), barbers are required to use disposable blade straight razors for the shaves. So since its the holiday's i figured i'd give my self the gift of a hair cut and a shave at Truefitt & Hill here in Chicago and asked if it would be possible for me to bring in my own razor to be used for the shave. I kinda figured the answer would be NO but to my surprise they said YES!!! So now i am fit with the task of figuring out which razor i want to take so heres my question.....
First, would you take your own razor to a barber to have them use it for a shave or no?
and Second which one of your razors would you choose......
i am currently debating on 2, and please if you so feel let me know which of the 2 you would pick if you were in my shoes, First is a DD Goldedge that is in MINT condition will all the gold and blue on the tang and was one of the first razors i bout b/c i got it cheep and had it honed by Lynn and i have yet to use it just because the right circumstances haven't hit me yet. And second is a NOS Toyo 666 frameback that i picked up from a member here that i just got and haven't used yet. Both are shave ready and good to go so which would you go with.
It will be interesting to see ppls responses on if they would even take their own razor and which of their collection they woud take!!!!
I will probably take a picture and use it for SOTD tomorrow!!!!
thanks guys!
