I tried using a pre-shave oil (Shave Secret from WalMart) and found that my creams and soaps provided enough lubrication by themselves. However I have lately started using the oil after shaving. I will spray on an aftershave and them put 4 drops of oil in my palm with some water and rub the oil over...

Did I miss the Colorado listing? I Frappred several weeks ago.

I find that my Aristocrat is a mild shaver, maybe like a 4-5 setting on my heavy adjustable. But that may be just what you need for your face,beard, technique. However my Aristocrat is easily the best looking of the bunch.

I get very good shaves with one of those.

Welcome to one of mans' little gifts to himself. I also started with an adjustable set to a low setting. I now set it to 7 and down to 4 for touch ups.

My tastes run towards Azzarro, drakkar Noir, Aramis, Kenneth Cole Signature, Gucci Nobile.

It stinks? It smells like money. That said I like Tom's shave creams and I hope they don't screw with the products.

I will join all of you on the 20th with my newly aquired products.

When a finger points at the moon, look at the moon, not the finger for it only points the way.

I bought a tub of shave soap ($3.99) and a bottle of after shave cream ($12.99) at the local Super Target here southeast of Denver.

I haven't seen a gold adjustable before now, and I just saw three of them at the same time! I have a HD silver adjustable that is my go-to razor.

Is this what you are talking about? I beleive that it is an TTO Aristocrat.

Checked out the nearest superTarget today. They were still re-organizing their shelves with no Poraso to be seen.

What a terible thing to happen to such a good person. Sue, my prayers are with you and your family. Tony, thanks for the notice.

I'm not sure but Home Depot type places might sell aluminum channel. The metal is easy to drill though you need at least a .5 inch drill. My Aristocrat and HD adjustable won't fit the holes in mine.

I grabbed some aluminum c-section at work and had our machinist drill a row of holes down one side with a shallow spotface opposite from the holes to help steady the razor handles. http://www.shavemyface.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10594/normal_Razor0001.jpg http://www.shavemyface.com/gallery/albums...

I also followed the recomendations here and ordered a stainless neti pot. I expect it to arrive this week. I'm in good overall health and haven't been sick in years. However I have had persistant stuffiness that I hope to relieve with the neti pot.

Here is my little corner of the shave world.


I went back and added pics of my SCS badger and Omega No. 5 boar bristle brushes.

Prairie,
I got the big pump bottle. I would be happy to send some to you if I can find an appropriate container.
