He had one anomaly DE that he was able to stretch out to 30+ shaves.

    cheers,

    edit: John, I just noticed that you posted the video was of Dave stropping the DEs and SEs.

    This is only an educated guess, but try "shavemyface.com" and "theshaveden.com".
    Keep your pivot dry!

    smf = shave my face
    tsd = the shave den

    I think both are shaving forums. I know the shave den is geared more toward de's.

    I think that TSD is The Shave Den...not sure on the other.

    When I was DE shaving I never knew you could do this. Weird.

    I'll try this on my Gem Micromatic SE blades when I feel like using it again. Hard to not use the straights though!
