    OK now I'm confused. That's nothing new. It's pretty much been a constant for the last several decades, but what is UAE? Is it an Australian thing?

    If so, please explain it within the context of the entirety of my understanding of Australia, which is Crocodle Dundee and Priscilla--Queen of the Desert. Also, for bonus points you might want to explain how this relates to corking a blade. Something along the lines of "that's not a knife, this is a c&ck in a frock on a rock" would be nice.

    Given Sh!t to your mates & sinking p!ss while skiing down the biggest sand dunes you can find on a mid summers day, now this would be a corker of a day in anyone's book.

    Once had a Sheila ask me if that was a stubby in my pants, but I told her nah it was a goon bolted and she could cork it if she wanted

    Rob why is that? What is different about that cork?

    I use synthetic corks for knives, they are denser than natural corks.
    It was said in jest Euclid.

    By the way, my original post was referring to the Feather SE blade which can be a bit harsh - gently running through a cork just takes the bite out of it but you can still get double figure shaves. I've never found that DE blades require corking.

    And with that, the thread is back on track.
    My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

    United Arab Emirates. And I got nothing with regards to blade corking.

    Wait here now. As a moderator aren't you supposed to rein us in and keep us on the cork?
