Re: Job Problems

43? That is young. Take charge and do as others have said document but don't be obvious or obsessive. Learn the plumbing business. You have 20 plus years to get really good at it and they make a TON of money plus you typically won't have a female boss there.

Re: popularity of things

When I first came here, there were two main camps. There were those who used new Merkur razors and those who used vintage Gillettes (and some Schicks). We didn't have the range of new razors that we do now. (Edwin Jagger razors at that time were expensive items using refinished Merkur heads on cust...

Re: Back to the basics

I now own two of the main characters in this thread, the Klein and the Thiers Issard. The TI is superb and the Klein is workmanlike. The old Thiers Issards are perhaps underrated? I have only owned 2 others in the past, one being a Super Gnome that I should have never sold! I believe I will certainl...

Re: mentholation

Once in awhile I enjoy the Proraso experience. I used to enjoy the Santa Maria Novella original but now that it pivoted toward the Tuscano? frag, not so much. Having been delving into traditional shaving going on 9 plus years I tend to gravitate toward the old school Trumper, T&H, Taylors, Tabac...
