Tonight’s Shave
Razor: Devette by tom
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Brush: JR90
Soap: Tabac
It has been a spell since I have used this little bad boy. Very close 2 pass shave.
My first shave was early 1980. It was with a Gillette Black Beauty. Brush was a Surry I believe and it was Williams in an Old Spice mug. Most likely Old Spice AS. That was my setup for 10 years until I got married and I started with disposables.
Then around 2005ish I went back to wet shaving...
My dad a few years ago split his knife collection up with my son and my nephew. Just random knives. No real colletable knives. He gave me an early Cattaraugus scout knife. That bad boy is in excellent shape. I will dig it out and post a pick of it.

Loved the shaves Shake-sharp gave. There were big disagreements as if it were truly a SE. The verdict was it is. As only 1 edge is available to use.
Nice 500 too.
I shave with my left hand with standard razors. However when I was shaving with a straight, I used both hands. I could never get my neck to a satisfactory finish so I went back to mainly standard razors. I will on occasion use a straight just because.
