Although prices are ridiculous, and for plastic handles too! Time wise it's not much of an inconvenience is it? I don't find using a French blade for cooking inconvenient (sharpening et-cetera).
Does anyone else shave at night? I read an article in G.q. on the matter (gives the face time to heal), and much prefer it.
Thank you RmrDaddy

I assume that there are a number of wives who would prefer that their men shaved before coming to bed ...Chainsaw said:Does anyone else shave at night? I read an article in G.q. on the matter (gives the face time to heal), and much prefer it.

I know for me, this would mean I would already have a five o'clock shadow when I board the ferry for my morning commute. By the return commute in the evening I would be looking very shabby indeed. I think this would be the case for many, if not most, gentlemen.

When I have the money, I use pre-shave oil, nice sensitive-skin shave soap, and a nice restorative aftershave.
But it can get pricey fast. So, lately, I just use the following budget substitutes (which work just as well!)
-Pre-shave oil: Castor Oil and Olive Oil in a 2:1 ratio, with a little botanical oil thrown in.
