Cut Throat

[treemeup]

Hot water is better. The hotter the better in fact; keeps the shave close and less razor burn. Vodka is also good for storing you razors in as it kills germs and helps keep the blades sharp.

 

first site i looked at, reckon cold metal's gotta be sharper! Sharpen when hot? (this is again a guess) coldest possible when using, physics my friend

Razor blade. Anyone use them instead of a Bic or electric? I had a cut throat shave in Thailand but that was done by an expert. You can pick them up pretty cheap on ebay but I wonder why more people aren't using them. I'd sooner trust myself shaving with one of these

 

Sweeny Todd comes to mind.

No harm in trying. Always happy to be proved wrong if I get some improvement out of it. Not sure how I'm going to manage it though as I usually shave in the shower.
