Good wet shaving techniques (i.e., multipass beard reduction) and good products (soaps/creams/ASB's) make the most of a cartridge shave. I too pack a Sensor when flying and have found the results much improved with the use of techniques and products I learned about here. Of course, I am always happy...

After about three years of experimentation, I have settled on a single Razor/Blade combination that works for me Merker Slant/Feather blade. Same thing with brushes, I have a QED Saville Row that works quite nicely. With respect to soaps and creams, I have also tried 25+ of the leading brands and te...

I recently went from 3 passes (WTG, ATG, XTG) to 2 passes (ATG Combo). I found that since my beard grows differently on different parts of my face, on the second pass if I went XTG fro my jaw line down and ATG from the Jawline up, I obtained as close a shave with 2 passes as I had previously obtaine...

New York Shaving Company
have any of you had any experience with the New York Shaving Company? http://theshaveofnewyork.com/
I saw their new shop at the Parker Meridien when I stayed there a few times over the past couple of months and was thinking about treating myself to their $30 'basic shave' the next time I am there.

Cohibas and Montechristos are the two most fabled Cuban Cigars so you have definitely started out with the right exemplars (of course they are also the most counterfeited cigars so I tend to avoid them unless I know the source is a high quality Tobacconist.) Among other brands, two of my favorite Ha...

Well, this will teach me to go away for a couple of days, I seemed to have really opened up shave geek debate of theological proportions completely tangential to the original issue; in other words, your basic SMF thread :-) For what its worth, I find QED soap to be more than sufficiently efficacious...

QED soap favorites?
Recently I have been using QED's lavender soap and have really enjoyed it. I want to try some of Charles' other soaps. Does anyone have any recommendations for other scents?
