    Default Lovely boy

    I had a particularly good shave and mentioned to my 8-year old son: "Baby Butt Smooth today?".

    He replies (laughing) while touching my face (exact quote), "No, maybe 51-year-old-cheeks-with-no-facial-hair-smooth but not baby butt smooth."

    Smart-aleck.

    Should I acquaint him with a Tony Miller strop or an Illinois?

    Illinois. Don't want to risk creasing that nice Tony Miller.

    Use the Illinois . Tony Miller strops are much to valuable to risk any damage to them .

    Use the Illinois, theyve been doing a thorough job for years.

    That boy shows serious promise! If he lives past 17 he'll go far.

    Enjoy these days, I look foward to these days when my son gets to that point. Also make sure that you teach him how to use your hardware when he is old enough. I intend to.

    I have a Tony Miller paddle strop and nobody is allowed to touch it. My little man will get one when he is old enough and taking up straight shaving.
