Ha! Maybe I am kidding myself. But all my shave stuff does seem to generate an anti-female forcefield: the Boss usually mutters something about "silly self-indulgence" and stays well clear of the razors.flip-68 said:gillette executive (5,7,4)

3 new items used in this shave and it showed - neck was red raw. I'll keep to the low numbers until i'm used to the razor. not sure if the blade was too sharp for the aggression of the razor. definitely a less effective shave than with the old type. Cream performed well - had a lovely scent for old stock and i'm looking forward to using it again. good lather but needed a bit of work to get going - i think i'll be less mean with product in future!
Rob Dery - are you sure you're other half isn't changing your blade every other day?

I'm not sure if you saw my custom handle, made by our own templ8:
... attached to my Merkur 23C head with the Merkur handle alongside and a French fencing foil, which was the inspiration for the handle.
While the dimensions are 100mm x 12mm, or thereabouts, the pommel counterbalances the heavy handle perfectly and forms a shape that I can gently, yet firmly grip the handle by the end and ... as you say, concentrate on the shave rather than the razor.
Yeah, I'd be very interested to compare to your work ...
