Shaving - Secret mens business
« on: November 14, 2011, 07:06:36 AM »
Or secret hairy womens business too!

A while ago I was given one of these as a gift;

http://www.razorpit.com/index.php?language=au

Yeah right I thought, another product from KTEL or similar.

But, believe it or not, the damn thing works.

I have been using the same five blade razor for three months. I normally swap the cartridge fortnightly at best. And having wog skin a blunt razor will leave me looking not Norman Gunston in a flash....

Interesting. The concept seems sound.

I read some time ago that the primary reason that blades go dull is not how much work they do, but simply corrosion... and if you rinse the blade properly then dry it after each shave it will last a lot longer. I've been doing this for 12-18 months now (Mrs Squalo's hairdryer is a permanent fixture in the bathroom and 20 seconds on high does the trick) and I am getting months out of each Mach3, rather than weeks (I am a daily shaver).

Hi,
    Hmm! yep I remember shaving, I signed up in the RAAF for 6 years to avoid 4 years conscription.
Haven't shaved since about 1975.
It's got whiskers on it I reckon.

cheers

Hi,

I gave up the shaving caper for good way back in mid 1971, and I had beards on and off a lot before then.  Never seen much sense in shaving and it saved me a packet on razor blades.

I soon went off to investigate this so called amazing product and immediately sensed that some people out there, not content with selling kitchen junk to fill up our cupboards, are now targeting men.

Then I spotted this
Sharpening Disposable Razor Small | Large


And I know that I'll now simply strop my razor on my denim jeans and for FREE!!!!!!  ;D

Besides which using the jeans gives me an excuse to have the jeans hanging around in the bathroom. "Why are my jeans not put away"? .........."I'll tell you why. They help me shave". That should give her plenty to think about.

On the third blade since July.  So about two months per blade.  Pretty good I reckon!

I also got some magic beans and 10million shares in Enron buddy so back off.....   ;D   :D

It seems the important thing is that the blades are wiped at the correct angle and dried after each use.

Run the jeans trick and report back.. Will be interesting!
