Haaaa! Thank you Pplater, I was wondering......
what kind of shaving technology you were using when I met you. Well, now I know. I was tossing with the idea of asking you but, I am so reserved 
that the idea didn't make it to the vocal cords. As I see it, and now try to understand it, shaving IS an art in itself, patience, precision is kind of meditation, very nice Pplater, you have just brought to my mind a completely new concept, instead of seeing shaving in the morning as a chore it can be a very real way to meditation. Thank you, I'll make sure that my shaving will be spot on next time, soon when we meet, equal 0.3mm overdue
Cheers, Francois
Quintessential shaving ...
Shaving knives The traditional shaving knives from Solingen (Germany) are manufactured so as to meet the highest quality requirements. In a process used for generations, the shaving knife passes through around 70 working steps to make it "really handmade"...
re: quintessential
I use electric as I don't trust myself with a blade! =O As for your other question regarding products, have you looked into this line of product: for your soap and/or cream? It's Anthony Tsai and his bro's line of grooming products. -MW
I heard about ...
that line before, but never tried it. For now our "targetgroup" is more "old school" and one of them still uses his razor from about 30 years ago. Now he looks for a replacement, but still is not in a hurry :-) Thanks! Oliver
If you use a straight edge razor to shave, you really have to try my TwinLuxe shave cream
It's hands down the best shaving cream on the market today for straight edges. We even have an Art of Shaving Master National Barber for over 6 years tell us that he's never used anything as good as our shave cream until he tried it out. Now he stocks his...
I am a believer in the TwinLuxe line..
sorry to pitch it further for you AT.. but I am too chicken to shave with a straight blade..
"I like to use both electric and manual razors"
That´s what I do - Braun Series 7 at home and Mach3 when travelling. One day I have to try the real thing, but so far I didn´t even try it at a barber. Just remember the time when I have been at the barber shop with my father, the owner was called Joseph ...
One more thing you'll need
is whetstone. Last time I saw someone using razor was my grandfather. Still horrifying experience :) I was youngster but looking at sharp razor pressed against jugular is something that gives me shivers + watching Un Chien Andalou is not much of help neit...
My friend ...
I am surprised about your reply. Damjan without "balls"? Is it you? :-) We didn´t buy whetstones, but we bought this instead: One good one and three for "beginners". Cheers, Oliver ...
It is my tender side ;)
Yes dear Oliver that was exactly what I had in mind..but I made linguistic fault and I also see that you already have perfect razor strop (nothing less was expected) Happy shaving...brrrrr :) Damjan
It’s a bit of a joke, really…
Anyone who has met the pplater chin will be the first to tell you that shaving is a conceit: it would be sufficient to pour milk over such fuzz as there is and then let the cat lick it off. It goes to show, though, how our tastes in other things (such as ...

pplater ...
it seems like you are the only "real" man who still uses the real thing. Why am I not surprised :-) For how long do you already use your DOVO? Have you been happy with the sharpness when you got it and how is it today? Have you tried others as well? Thank...
Charming objects.
I can not explain why, but this kind of old handmade things always make me feel good. I guess it must be the "flavor" they have. Thanks, Oliver. Vte :)
Me too!
"this kind of old handmade things always make me feel good" ... and they are soooooo addictive :-) Cheers, Oliver
