Sorry I haven't been chiming in lately, Ladies (and Gents, as I'm sure there are a few lingering about). I'm out of town on business in Wisconsin indefinitely and working quite a bit. Didn't want you to think I had fatally slipped with my razor

. BTW, my new (vintage) Gillette Super Speed DE should be arriving up here in a few days. I'm excited to compare it to the Merkur HD. It's not a straight, but it's not a disposable either (good thing since I threw them all out). I just don't have time to do anything with straights while I'm out of town, but a lady still has to shave!
Can't wait to sit one day and catch up on the reading here! You Ladies enjoy and keep up the great work!
