Thread: Right of passage

Thanks for sharing your story.

Dear Alan Q,

That's terrific! I started DE shaving long after my father was gone, but my older brother had one of Dad's old razors. I soaked it in vinegar for a while to clean off the rust and debris. The handle screws into the head. I don't know the make or model, but it's special because it was my Dad's. You're creating more than a memory here with your son. Thanks for sharing.

That's awesome!!

If my son has my genes, I'll be amazed if I'm still alive when he needs to shave. I try to shave when he's around so that it's ingrained in him that real men shave with sharp things that aren't attached to plastic protected by a magic foam.

By the way, “earcutter” and the VanGogh self portrait for your profile gives me great joy!
