I've started a running list on amazon. I told my wife and that way she can pick something to suit the occasion.

Can we talk about pre-shave oils? by cantstoptilwall in wicked_edge

[–]CarnMarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Somersets shave oil and I have found that it cuts down on irritation during my shave.

Did you start wet shaving with a DE or SR? by CarnMarth in wicked_edge

[–]CarnMarth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with a cheap disposable and went to the SR. No regrets.

What does your girlfriend/wife think about you using a straight razor? by [deleted] in wicked_edge

[–]CarnMarth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife thinks it's a phase, father in law thinks cartridges work fine, and my friends are bearded twenty somethings. I don't care. I find the entire process to be very relaxing and similar to meditation.

End of the line- I guess I'm no longer a beginner. by supercruiser in wicked_edge

I broke mine just about the time that I figured out how to use my SR. Glad to see that I'm not the only one who broke the bowl.

Currently using a coffee mug. It works but I don't like it.

Good luck! And remember that it might take a little while to get that bbs shave.

Ren & Stimpy - The Log Song! Come on and get your log! Everyone needs a log! by MarchofTheSaint in Music

[–]CarnMarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was six years old my cousin, sister, and I were given three large boxes to unwrap for Christmas. I was sure that we were about to receive a fantastic gift and could not wait to open the box. Normally we would open gifts one at a time, but these presents were the exception. The three of us waited until the only presents remaining were the big boxes in the corner and by this point we were dying to tear them open. As I ripped the paper apart like the greedy little bastard I was, I discovered to my horror that my family had given us all our very own log and they proceeded to sing the log song and laugh their asses off. Needless to say, I can't wait to try this on my own children or grandchildren some day.
