Fall Seasonal Special Recap 

 

This year was the most successful year to date.  I received positive feedback from the “Hall of Fame Segment” and several listeners asked if I could enhance it for next year. 

 

Looking forward to next year!

New Blades from Oneblade 

New Blades from Oneblade are now available. It’s nice to have an alternative to the Feather FHS-10 blades that are the only blades that would fit this razor (without modifications).

I’m a fan of the Oneblade and will be picking up a few packs soon.

Traveling with Your Wet Shaving Gear for The Holidays 

With holiday travel upo in record numbers over the past year, it’s safe to say, many of you will be traveling over the next two months. 

 

I know I’ve discussed traveling with wet shaving gear in the past but felt this is a good time to go over it again. 

 

-Don’t bring anything you can’t live without. 

-Don’t put blades or straight razors in carry-on luggage. 

-Bring a synthetic brush 

-Build a good DOP kit. Invest in a good bag. 

-Mention wet shaving to relatives. You never know, you may get to use a family heirloom.

Rocnel Sailor 2024 is Here! 

 

The Rocnel Sailor is a limited edition safety razor that is released every year.  It’s a collaboration between Rocnel and Barbados razors and has been released with new models every year since 2007. 

 

This was the first cnc machined adjustable razor on the market and is still a key player after 17 years of production. There’s also a titanium adjustable being released as well.
