Thread: Any shower safe straights?

I have been using a Parker SR-1 and a Feather SS quite a bit in the shower. They are both nice because I can keep them, and use them, in the shower. Is there a suitable straight that can take this sort of treatment? Maybe wood or plastic handles? Stainless Steel blade? I wouldn't mind having a couple of straights that don't need to be pampered and can be replaced as needed.

Thank you,

Any cleaned up eBay cheapie will do. All you really need to do is make sure to dry it when you get out of the shower and don't leave it in the shower.

Probably stainless blade and either stainless scale or plastic one. However, shaving in the shower with a straight is dicey. A little too slippery in there for me. One false move and you know what could happen.

Goes against all safety common sense.

I'd put some PVC pipe on your you know what first.

Should you wish to count to 21 at the end of the day, I would highly recommend no Straight shaves in the shower!

SHOKI! You are BACK! Still the same ol fun-lovin dude!

I shave with the Parker SR1 and the Feather SS. I never feel like I am going to drop them and cut off my parts. Not that dropping them would be safe.

You say "Any cleaned up eBay cheapie" would a honed Whipped Dog do the trick as well?

Thank you,

H*ll, I can protect mine with a Duncan Donuts Ice Coffee straw; those things are pretty thick.

Nobody ever "feels" it, until they "feel" it.
