What could possibly go wrong. I mean, it might solve your neck problems? 

 

... I hope you have black towels....or red?

I've been told by a couple barbers learning to shave with a straight razor on yourself is pretty difficult, and to be prepared to filet your face a few times.  No thanks.

Why go halfway, when the real deal is so much better?

Beautiful razor but are you sure you want to leave that thought out there just wispering . ?

Don’t need to spend money on razors when you don’t use em!

[grizzlee]

@prodigy - how many cigar cutters can one man need or use? 

[prodigy]

To be honest, I haven't been active in that hobby for a while. Most of the puctured razors have been sold. That being said, I could buy several aristocrats if I sold all my razors and stones...

I'm safety razor shaver, have been for quite a number of years. I haven't jumped into the straight razor pool because I'm self aware, and realize there's no way I'm going to put in the effort to maintain the blade like I'm supposed to.

I can say prior to moving into classic shaving I could only shave 2 - 3 times a week at most because my skin would be very red and inflamed from the process. Since moving over I get far more compliments from women on my 'cologne'. What they're actually smelling is just shaving soap.

I love a straight razor shave, but I'm afraid of turning my bathroom into the car in Pulp Fiction after Samuel L accidently shoots that guy in the head.

This is the rockstar of disposable straight razors. There is a plastic handle version which is much cheaper around $100. It is much more forgiving and much less work then a regular straight razor and the disposable blades are sharper then you could ever get an actual fixed blade. 

As per safety concerns I taught myself to use a straight razor about 6 months ago. I thought the ritual of it would help me focus in the morning, it certainly has done that. I cut myself a bit the first couple of times I shaved but nothing serious. Its also a much more comfortable shave then any disposable I have ever used. If you decide to go this route get good shaving soap and a good shaving brush. A good lather is essential to a good wet shave.

Get a Feather Artist Club instead.

  Same situation as you, I went into straight razors and lost the required amount of blood to learn it, but I took a step back and grabbed a safety razor as step between and never looked back. No irritation from the lovely shaving creams and razor blades, but a lot quicker and easier than the straight razor.

I cringed. Thought this video was a set up for a kneck cutting, even though I was certain it wasn’t.  Therefore, I may have to tap out.
