Sure will. He gives them at his shop. He seems pretty good with a straight, and uses one himself. But he had no idea about this huge shaving community we all enjoy.Wyatt Earp wrote:So David, will you ask him next time for a full straight razor shave?

I think I got us a convert...
Well a new barber shop opened up in my humble little town, and because I'm tired of my local buzz cut factory, I stopped in. I had met the barber a time or two before at a cigar shop I frequent where he told me of his impending opening. While he was giving me a cut (which was a damn fine haircut com...

I Keep Learning New Stuff
It seems about every month or so I learn something new, and I my level of shaving experience jumps tremendously. First it was that my technique was all wrong. Then I conquered the angle. Then I figured out my lather was too dry. I thought I had gotten it, and that the little bit of razor burn on my ...

I tried this wine and enjoyed it. I tasted subtle hints of leather and steel on the palate. To the nose I detected hints of Mitchell's Wool Fat, and Valobra shave stick with a baby butt smooth finish. I've noticed that it was subtle, yet aggressive. You could kind of adjust the aggressiveness up at...

Get your tobacco at a real tobacconist, though; I wouldn't trust the drugstore inventory for freshness. Go ahead and get some sweet aromatic blends if you're interested; there are a lot of great boozy, fruity, caramel-ly mixes that are beginner friendly. Real men start out with Dunhill Royal Yacht....

I haven't taken a math class in three years. But, when I did, and back in high school, the standard was a Ti-83 Plus. They might have better ones now, but I don't know. I've still got mine. It's so easy to use. Although, now all I do with it is balance the old checkbook. Shoot your professor an e-ma...

They were a gift, but it tasted great, so it wouldnt surprise me if they were of a good quality. only 9 more to get through.... :lol: Oh no, I wasn't being sarcastic. I was being quite serious.
