The Shaving Thread

[prophetic_joe]

Ok so I read an article on MSNBC about this and they were talking about how this is so much better for your skin and all of that. I go out Saturday to some garage sales and find a bunch of old DE razors, all made by Gillette. I pick up a pack he has for $2 it's got a blue handled job and one that is all Silver looking that allows you to udjust the blade angle and all that. So now I need to find a Badger brush, some creams and other stuff. Where can I go?

This is what I got did I do ok?

Hey Newf I did some checking and the Razor with the blue handle is a Gillette Knack, number is N1 I'm going to look up the number and see what the date is I am also curious to learn more about this razor.

Found it, Knack razor from the first quarter of 1968. Sweet deal.

Just picked up a tube of C.O. Bigelow from Bed Bath & Beyond. It's made by Proraso. I like it . It's got Eucalyptus Oil in it, and when you do that final rinse with the cold water, ewww weee ... feels good. I'd definately recommend it.

I also picked up some Neutrogena Razor Defense After Shave. I had a problem with my face drying out the next day. This stuff has really helped alot.

I got in a tub of Nancy Boy, too. But I haven't tried it out yet.
