Feel free to post anything unrelated to wet shaving or men's grooming (I.e. cars, watches, pens, leather goods. You know, the finer things of life).

Like the title says. How are things here? Any interesting drama or buffoonery going on?

No buffoons allowed here! So have you shaved in the last 5½years?

Hi Doc! I'm glad to see you are still here. Yes, I have shaved in the past 5 years. In fact I MUST shave daily. I'm required to be clean shaven at work (on the chin... mustache is allowed) in case I need don a respirator.

I had to give up on straight razors because honing and sharpening are skills that I never could get right. I ended up selling my collection ( 121 razors and associated items ) to an enthusiast who was better able to appreciate and maintain them.

I'm still a sucker for old safety razors and will buy them if I see them.

Shame about the straights, but I hope their new owner is enjoying them. Do feel free to hang around again!

Ah Greg, I remember you well! I've even wondered what became of our Scrapyard Ape.

Welcome back!

Morning Greg ... great to see you on the boards again. I have missed your wit and wisdom.
