I use a razor just like that, albeit from Boots so not as nice. It's great though, you get more control if you're shaping a beard, the blades are far sharper than the five blade things you get these days, and of course the blades are hilariously cheap. |

I use a modern razer, but still paint on the foam with a my dads old badger hair shaving brush. I find it a lot easier to shape my sideburns and goatee to the right shape without having everthing obscured with a ton of foam. |

It's not the razor that should be hot, it is your face and hairs that should be like that after a good steaming with a hot towel. Softens the hairs up and makes it easy to shave if they've been steamed and soaked. |

Everything you need to know about shaving,can be found at BADGERANDBLADE. For the record, using a DE is the most cost effective way to go. A decent soap cost a tenner for a tub that should last you six months. A vintage Gillette razor can be had for the same price, most of mine are over 50 years old and look as good as new. After that all you need is a brush, cheap ones are really cheap, but as with everything else you'll probably get hooked and want to get a better one for £20+. You do the math........................s. |

Hope it works out for you. And remember a razor is only as good as the blade. And a good soap/cream sits right in the stubble, rather than ON it, like that squirty foam ina tin shit. |

Just to clarify (if anyone's still reading this) ideally you want to go for a Gillette BALL END TECH, or a fat handled Tech, not the 70s/80s techs, which were too light imo. Badgerandblade.com has a trading forum, where razors are bought sold and sometimes given away. As you were. |

King of shaves ? Queen of shaves more like. I would never argue that old = better. But a nice clean shave is not a 21st century (or even 20th century) phenomenon...or are you saying new is better?>>3018 |

Good idea but try get a sample pack with some Feathers blades, or just get Feathers, Derbys are not bad but the gillette 7,o,clocks didn't give me more than two decent shaves, same for the Wilks. |

straights are a whole diff' ball-game. U need loads of extras on top of the soap+brush; hone/strop/strop paste/ and many, many months of practise. It may be cheaper to buy your own off ebay than have a chipped one re-edged. If you have xmas cash to spend get yourself a nice gillette rocket off the web. will last you forever. |
