I have had the best and closest shaves with less irritation since I went back to a brush. Plus it is easier to clean the shaving cream doesn't get all over your hands and you don't end up washing it all down the drain. Plus the soap lasts a long time. |

![]() Got new electric trimmer kit and shaver (Norelco and Remington) for Christmas and used it once. Prefer it old school. Steak knife and warmed up butter. BAM.

![]() Just bought this today. Should be here in 2-3 days. I don't trust myself with a straight razor so went with a safety razor.

![]() I actually shave my head while leaving a trimmed beard. For a shaving oil I just use baby oil... a few drops mixed with a few drops of water works better than a lot of far more expensive shaving creams. Baby oil is cheap... a $1 bottle would easily last you years of shaving every day.
For razors I use the Dorco Pace 6 Plus: http://www.dorcousa.com/sxa5000-6-bl...ystem-for-men/ While I'm sure straight edge or safety razors have their advantages, anyone paying for the overpriced Gillette cartridges and razors will quickly realize how bad they are getting ripped off if they try the Dorco Pace 6. It's actually a better razor than the Mach 3 and the handle and cartridges are far cheaper. I can get a lot more shaves out of one cartridge than I could with the Mach 3 too. |

![]() Yea...I realized after I had bought it that I might need blades so I had to go to Wal-Mart. Bought some cheap blades. Still a closer shave than anything I have used. I'm going to invest in some better pre-shave supplies and blades.

![]() I can say from experience that those AOS thiers issard razors do not in anyway come shave ready from the AOS stores. I would suggest sending it out to get honed.
I know some people that can do it (usually costs around $20), or if interested I can get it ready for you (I'm pretty experienced with straights as I've sharpened over 1000 and made a few from scratch in my day). Shoot me a pm if interested. |

![]() Google - it's your friend.
Essential tremor (ET) is a progressive neurological disorder of which the most recognizable feature is a tremor of the arms or hands that is apparent during voluntary movements such as eating and writing.[1] This type of tremor is often referred to as "kinetic tremor." The tremor may also occur in the head (neck), jaw and voice as well as other body regions, with the general pattern being that the tremor begins in the arms and then spreads to these other regions in selected patients. Women are more likely to develop the head tremor than are men.[2][3] Other types of tremor may also occur, including postural tremor of the outstretched arms, intentional tremor of the arms and rest tremor in the arms.[4] Some patients may have unsteadiness and problems with gait and balance that are above and beyond that due to normal aging.[5][6] In addition to these motor problems, a variety of non-motor features have recently been linked with ET. These include anxiety and depressive symptoms as well as cognitive difficulty.[7] Recent studies have demonstrated that late-onset ET (onset > age 65) may be associated with an increased risk of developing dementia.[8] ET is one of the most common neurological diseases, with a prevalence of approximately 4% in persons age 40 and older and considerably higher among persons in their 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.[9][10] Aside from enhanced physiological tremor, it is the most common type of tremor and one of the most commonly observed movement disorders.[11] Essential tremor was also previously known as "benign essential tremor", but the adjective "benign" has been removed in recognition of the sometimes disabling nature of the disorder. Although essential tremor is often mild, patients with severe tremor have difficulty performing many of their routine activities of daily living.[12][13] |

![]() By the way, that old dude in the video is right. I've been using his technique to get keep the blade clean and delay the wear on the edge of the blade and it works. It'll add quite a bit of time to your razor.
