Hi everyone my name is Chris. I've emigrated over from B&B where I've learned a whole lot. I was lucky enough to stumble into over 200 vintage Gillette's and now am thoroughly infected with RAD. I've recently acquired my third toggle and am currently seeking a 195 model.

Some of my other interests would be Grayling, fly fishing, the outdoors and Absinthe. It is my sincere pleasure to meet all of you and I hope to learn a lot over here as well.

Welcome Chris, it's nice to have you aboard. It is a pleasure to meet you too. At least we won't be giving you a bad case of RAD but you may be spreading it among us. :D

Welcome to The Shave Den, Chris!! I would have thought that 200!!! vintage Gillettes would have been an effective cure for RAD! 'Course, I've been wrong before! :o

Nice to have you with us!

Uhhhg, that was the origin of my RAD. Such a great cache find, unfortunately, did not come with any Rocket's, Toggle's or Aristocrats. I've quietly, over the past month and a half, been transforming my vast Super Speed and Slim adjustable reserves into other less common razors through eBay and various behind the scene trades.

It has been an incredible learning experience.

I only have 5...that worked for me! :D I hardly use the ones I DO have!

However, I DO seem to have a serious case of TSDSSAD! :drool

Welcome to "The Shave Den" Chris.
Im not one who normally plugs anything right away but I just love this shave soap, so I have to speak out about The Shave Den Soap made by the Queen of Blades "JoAnna" if you get the chance click the link at the top of the page and check out the goodies she provides for us.

WoW, If you ever get around to selling any and the price is right. I would consider a blue tip and a Tech.

Kind of makes you wonder what happens to all the sharp objects taken at the airport.
