Thank Sharpton for the glycerin trick.
I just found it much easier if I soaked it overnite. I got the idea from a barber I know, who uses it all the time. He uses a straight to clean up the neck, and behind the ears. His puck is always wet from use, and kinda soft, as you may have noticed, most of your water was gone..hmmm.[emoji6] well that got me a thinkin, and here we are. A excellent cheap soap. Still would like to try some vintage Williams Mug.. Maybe not, I'd just start hatin the modern stuff [emoji38]

She didn't know it, but it turns out to be my birth year razor. I always wanted to try one, so now I did! 3 passes and what a treat. I don't think it will replace my straights, but it gets the job done if time is pressing. Spank me baby, I am smooth as silk!
