Just to let all of youze know that SE shaving is not dead on this site. Although I don't use SE as much, but every time I do I wonder why I don't (use it more that is). Decided it's laziness and the relatively safe, carefree shave afforded by DE. SE is always a bit edgy and requires a lot more concentration particularly on the first shave with a new GEM blade. The noise is almost off putting because if a DE blade would make that much racket you'd be chucking it after half a stroke. Sorry about the lack of a picture. As is well known, I'm an IT retard and judging by the recent questions on how to download pictures I'm not even going to try. In any case who, after seeing Razorguys insane blades in particular, wants to see a plastic razor side by side with one of my weird looking re-knots and a bottle of Nivea after shave balm. The gear:
Wee Scot: It's not too small, other brushes are just too big.
Body Shop Macca Root: Decided that my huge stash of this stuff is the next target for an entry in the finished product sticky. As it's easily available it's the only shaving product my family gives me. It's also incredibly efficient so the product sticky entry might have to wait for 6 months.
Ever Ready Featherweight: My go to razor for the first shave with a new blade. Light and relatively speaking on the mild side of the SE family of razors.
GEM SS: Always scarily sharp on the first shave.
Where are all you SE shavers?
