Derald <derald@invalid.net>: Nov 23 11:48PM -0500 In the middle 1960's, frustrated with the aerosol cans of goo being sold as "shaving cream", I began using "old fashioned" shaving soap, in a cup, applied with a soft specialized brush. In the late 1970"s, when Gillette retired the "Super Blue Blade" brand and moved exclusively to stainless steel razor blades that seemed already to be dull at first use, I obtained an antique "cutthroat" straight razor along with the required accessories and, after a fairly brief learning period, discovered the means to a truly close shave. Now, however, I am incapable of the finesse required to control the sraight razor safely and have reverted to the old Gillette adjustable handle and double-edged blades. Which leads me to the request: Can anyone direct me to a source for truly sharp double-edged razor blades? IME those expensive auto-clogging multi-blade dispozos being marketed as shaving implements nowadays just don't make the grade. Thanks, -- Derald ...the only traits that are passed down in your family are perversity, ego-centrism, laziness and sociopathic tendencies. --Lynn Barton, Filedheacht Music School, East Bridgewater, MA to Derald, July, 2016. ...hold a grudge, me? |
