My Current Shaver:



I haven't gotten into sharpening it with the stones, I send it out for that, but obviously it has to be stropped prior to use. In a world where everything is faster, faster, faster, it's almost like meditating to slow it down for a couple minutes and perform a quality shave.

Anyone ever use ice substitutes to prevent dilution, such as the Whiskey Stones?


Whisky Stones - Soapstone "Ice Cubes" for Whiskey Lovers

I've always tended to stick to the 2-cube max rule, but I wouldn't be opposed to using these.

I haven't, but it seems pretty sophisticated.

I see the "bacon scorpion" post has been removed, in good taste as this is the "finer things in life" thread.

Any talc users? There are only a few brands most people would consider "refined," such as Clubmans, J&J, Borotalco, Caswell-Massey. Any others you guys use or recommend?
