Re: Anyone tried Holy Black shavette?
I tried the shavettes, gosh, 30 years ago, but it was just to satisfy my curiosity. Flimsy and unsubstantial are my dim recollections.

Re: Burt's Bees Shaving Cream
There's a reason it doesn't sell well. Due to the novelty factor it sells once but those who try it don't buy again.

Re: Longevity of ARKO Shave Stick
Pete it has been some years since I last bought Arko (still have 10-12 sticks left) but the last time I looked it was widely available. Check with Phil at bullgooseshaving.com. If he doesn't have it he may be able to help you locate it.

Re: Razor Blade Sharpness Testing
Sounds ambitious, best of luck. One caveat though, you may find the same blade shaves differently in other razors.

Re: Do you have a wish list?
Can't say I'm actively looking for anything shaving related. We've often joked around here about having a lifetime supply and when moving some boxes recently discovered I do.

If I don't shave in the morning it will be because I died in my sleep.
