Today's shave was a dream ...

Durham Duplex Kamisori Hack
Personna Carbon Steel (Carpet Cutter) [3]

Smashing! The Durham Duplex head on a stick is so much easier to wield than on traditional scales ... for me.

... a dream.

Paul, I am sorry but that 'thing' is a shaving travesty. Something on a stick comes to mind when I see the Durham in that even more grotesque than usual position.

Normally I don't comment on your peculiar tastes but this is too much! That is not a dream.

You have sunk to a new low,

Martin

I can go lower ... tomorrow, the rusty can lid

I used to joke about how a carpet cutter in a dog dresser was a great shave. Now I can boast that a carpet cutter in a dog dresser on a piece of garden cane is a dream shave! Oh, it is. It's official ... and none of your posturing or gesturing will take that away. This was a dream shave. Tomorrow, I will have dream re-growth, soft and regimented.

Vive la Durham Duplex ... on a stick!
