    i like after you said 'the Gentleman's Companion', the clock chimed. i thought bloody hell, Graham's into gunfighting now!
    Why would there have been a matching set? is it like the advice new SR shavers are given these days - one in use and one sent out for honing - or just cheaper than a 7 day set.
    i have an ILR and i need to revisit it having been on a coticule and black Arkansas binge lately!
    All the george and hope the winter there is kind.

      Noooo not gun fighting. A matched pair is convenient for most guys who only shave 2 or 3 times a week like myself. As you know, a SR needs 48 hours for the fin to go back down again, so having a matched pair fits that need perfectly. THATS the point. Have a lovely weekend

    What a torture for the skin.

      Torture, how does that work. Does my skin look tortured? Actually using a properly honed straight razor tones the skin and the facial muscles. What do you think barbers used before plastic alternatives? 😉 Have you ever shaved with a straight razor?

      @@pixsellpix Actually I am not in favour of shaving. I was just imagining myself going through the process of shaving.

      @@artsteps295 Well i only shave twice a week as my beard does not grow fast at all. Imagine for a second...not the shave...it's the preparation of the skin firstly. A professional barber will soften your beard with hot towels first, then apply some Oil, (i use Olive Oil), then apply the creamy shave soap enriched with Glycerine and other nutrients like Sandal wood Oil. After all this treatment to enrich your skin tone will the shave commence. Best policy when shaving with ANY razor is to stretch your skin with your spare hand. This will ensure the skin is flat and smooth for the blade. After shaving i use a good quality aftershave, then apply good quality face cream. After this pampering, you feel refreshed and confident.😎
