INGO Wetshavers...official

[jetmechG550]

I use a mug, but I do let it and the brush soak in hot water while I shower.

I do this as well, my problem is that for some reason it seems to take forever to get hot water going upstairs in our master bath so it really adds to my prep time. That and my lather bowl with "hot" water just doesn't seem to stay warm by the time I start to whip

First 2 shaves with the Edwin Jagger and I'm liking it so far. Closest shave I've ever had.

Not coordinated anough to avoid cutting yourself?

Hey Chezuki or others, ItalianBarber.com has greatly reduced pricing on Feathers and Bolzanos right now, $24.95/100 for feathers

Actually, yes...yes I am coordinated enough. I have shaved my head with an old school safety razor before.

That is a pretty sweet deal, but I have enough Feathers to last me for over 3 years.

if having trouble growing a beard or mustache, my great gramps always said to put a little chicken dookie on the inside and cow dookie on the outside. One pushes and the other one pulls.

Right on, lost track of how many of your orders came through or fell through LOL

as a side note have you seen tryablade.com? has a really nice variety and you can order single blades with flat rate shipping of $2. Kind of nice if you don't want to order a $5 pack of five. I think the highest priced blade is around $.75 but most can be had for about $.30 or less

I have over 200 Feather and 100 Derby DE blades and most of my shaving lately has been done with one of these which only uses half of a blade.

nice, I knew you had acquired one. That site also sells single edge if you get the itch. I want a straight but it's going to have to wait for a while. I just don't have the time to put into it right now.

 

[freekforge]

I dont shave! unless i get yelled at by a woman to shave in which case i do it quickly.

 

[chezuki]

facinating...

I see this thread pretty much petered out............ gents ( and ladies) with Christmas right around the corner - what a great gift idea - a DE razor , by far the best shave I've ever had
30+ years of twin or triple blades and never a thought to go back in time to use what my great grandfather may have used.........

 

[jetmechG550]

There was two actually, the other was a hijacked thread on Dollar Shave club. Was actually going to bring this back up and see if anyone knows someone locally or semi locally to make a scuttle for me. I know there's several available online just looking to either throw the business to another INGO'er or local potter. Maybe something a little more custom and has more sentimental value.

 

[Hoosierkav]

I'm keeping this thread alive; I've started looking at antique stores for a razor...maybe I'm cheap, maybe I appreciate a 60+ year old piece of metal...

 

[BiscuitNaBasket]

I always thought it was interesting how one person could use a single blade and get a smooth shave yet another person would use a triple blade and get the same thing. The latter usually costing more in the long run.

 

[jetmechG550]

Having been at it for a while and converting a few friends, I will never own a cartridge razor again. I get three great, irritation-free shaves out of a single DE blade, whereas I couldn't get three irritation-free shaves from a multi blade whiz bang razor.

My wife got this for my birthday last month
The Bluebeards Revenge ?Privateer Collection? Double Edge Razor Gift Set (Gift Boxed) | The Bluebeards Revenge

Plus a variety pack of blades from EBay between persona and feathers (blades) I am still astonished after each shave how smooth it is!

Certainly takes longer, for real, about 20 minutes, so I only use it about twice a week and suffer through with my electric on the other days. My DE shave is close that the next day after is still as good as fours hours after I would have used the electric. And cartridges ...... geez over a dollar a piece - never again

This. I've been doing this for nearly 9 months and have yet to go through $10 worth of blades. None of my fancy multi-blade razors even come close to Feather in a DE.
