Thread: Have you taught your son to use a straight?

I LOVE IT/ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! As it's not often that I've heard someone have the confidence to tell that it was someone like your son who convinced his Old Man to use an older but better way of shaving.

I'd not only like to shake YOUR HAND but YOUR SON'S HAND!

A very sincere thank you to you and your son :
