Gentlemen,
Here is togetherness represented by my razor and the dearly beloved's. Mine is the Mongoose and my wife's is the Gillette Flare Tip. As the song says: "Love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage . . ."
Very nice Obie, two classy razors, and your excellent book.
Wow, shameless plug.
Har har.
Shame, shame, shame. I thought the love theme in the novel would tie in nicely with the two razor set up. By the way, I found the dearly beloved's Super Speed at a flea market and then restored it to near perfection. My wife loves the razor, especially since she had used a Gillette way back when.Quote:

After months of fighting the good fight SWMBO, I finally convinced her to try a DE. A couple of months in to her using one, out of the blue, she say, "You were right..." I was driving, we almost died... No big deal. I asked, "about what?" She said, "Using a safety razor. Don't let it go to you head." :dropjaw::dropjaw::dropjaw:
my SWMBO apparently had a near death experience with a safety razor once so i know i won't be able to convince her. Congratulations!
Gentlemen,
As it happens, my younger daughter and her family live next door. Couple years back I set her up with a DE and trained her. Her razor has the small Merkur 15C handle matched to the Edwin Jagger shave head. I have promised her a lifetime supply of DE blades — the Polsilver is her favorite.
The dearly beloved likes the Gillette SharpEdge "yellow" blades. I even load and unload the dearly beloved's razor, clean it for her and put it in the stand. She is spoiled — but well deserved.
Your a smart man Obie, spoil your wife that way she don't leave with half your stuff, and besides they spoil us all the time. Tc
Well said, my dear friend.Quote:

Now if I can only coax her to use it.
I have another for the year we met.
