Turns out a lot of us shave with DE or Straight razors. What do you shave with?

Me? Merkur 34c (feather blades) or a iwasaki for a treat. I use a Invisable edge badger brush with Edward jagger sandlewood shaving soap.

Fixed wheel fanatic.
I've always shaved with a double edge razor. None of this mach fusion 3 nonsense.
Mind you, I was given some Taylor of Old Bond St shaving cream and a badger hair brush and it's fab. Much better than the squirty cream stuff.
But, I live in a soft water area so getting good foam from soap isn't a problem.

But the first 6 months of a new job I have too. It looks good...

So does a magnificent beard.

I have to confess that I have been shaving my birthright more often recently. Without wanting to be too graphic, my good lady finds it tickly when we are enjoying relations.

My misses like the feel of a beard, but the looks of clean shaven.

I left my alum block on the side of my sink, turned into sand paper.

Beard on the face that's clipped periodically with Babyliss electric clippers.
The legs - I use whatever cheap plastic disposable razors I am able to lay my paws upon. Infact I just did them in the bath. Used 2 razors. A sensitive skin blue one - not sure of the make but it wasn't all that & a yellow Bic single bladed budget special. The Bic was far superior!

I use a rechargeable electric razor, though it probably needs a charge again, as I last used it in December 1976!
