That i was allowed to take my DE + Blades offshore to the rig with me :) This may seem like something strange to be happy about to the US guys and anyone from anywhere where common sense prevails, but the HSE in the UK is very much of the "Nanny State" type..
It was looking sketchy, but i pointed out that it was in fact a "safety razor" and that that's what the sharps bins present on every accomodation floor of every rig where for. then i got a bit cheeky and said to the security guy at the heliport "seriously, most people would have a hard time cutting themselves with 99% of the cartridge blades that go in sharps bins..". He laughed
So i took out my boar bristle brush, my palmolive cream, and alum block and some body shop mosituriser, will be a breath of fresh air. especially when stubble on my neck gets caught in every piece of velcro going, especially from the life jacket rebreather combo on the chopper.
