Just out of curiosity I would like to propose a poll in an effort to see what the age make-up of our forum is. If you would rather not answer that is just fine but I thought that it might prove to be interesting.
Thanks for your input.

That's what my grandfather would say everytime you ask him how old he was. He was 39 for a long time.

37, but much too young to feel this da-n old

OK - so I'll fess up - I feel 16, look 38, and turn 47 in less than a week.
I like to see the demographic and find it interesting to consider.
Like many of the noobies here, I have had enough of shaving the modern way and am moving back to my roots with the same tools and technique that my Dad taught me (with about the same aged razor).
A bit like Mark Twain when he spoke about his appreciation for his father's experience as opposed to his own youthful over-exhuberance.

Glad my wife is turning 40 in 2 months. Nothing like an older woman!

28
I once heard that if someone asks your age always add 15-20 years to it. Then you always get complimented on how good you look... for your age.
Of course this only works in person.

42 years old. I don't look a day over 41.9 though.
