    Interestingly enough, the safety razor is a lot easier on the skin than a plastic razor, however, less forgiving.
    Got a couple of Schick and Gillette safety razors from the '60s and '70s. Never liked the double/triple blade plastics.

    I have an old straight but am afraid to use it. The whole self sacrifice thing...

    I wonder if the artist does commissions? I have lots of broken wrenches. A full set of wrench/razors would be handy.

    I have been following "Geofatboy" from Shave Nation.com on YouTube. He really has some good instructional videos, and gets me excited to try the Straight razor.

    If you think about it... the double/triple/up to 5 blades now.... you are dragging 5 blades across our face every pass. The safety razors and the straight razors are more efficient, you make less passes.
