Your right about some soaps/creams lathering better with warm/hot water than with cold, I've found that with my collection. What I have been doing (and I forgot to note that down in my previous post) is kinda what you describe, soak the badge in hot water and bowl lather, ok by the time I get around to applying its cold but it is easier to work up when warm.
I've not tried a st8 yet Blades, I have seen a couple of vintage st8s in an antique/collector type selling centre not to far from here, I have been tempted but i think wifey might blow a gasket if she sees me infront of the mirror with one,,,,,,,,then again !!
I'm pleased to hear other comments about cold water shaving, starting to wonder if I was the only person in the world that did it. :roll:
Those look like they'd hurtcanon said:Hey Slick, bought a load of these comb blades at a carboot sale over the weekend, thought with them being gillettes I couldnt go wrong. The guy told me that they convert a regular de straight bar razor into an open comb, cant wait to try one out, it might be just what my sensative skin needs. I'll keep you posted :shave[attachment=0]
