In my experience dull blades are what nick me. I used to get the occasional cut before I learned the proper technique.

I am still learning with regards to technique. Every shave is another learning point. I am a long way off from mastering DE shaving but i do enjoy DE shaving.

I was 50...now yet me think who was President? Reagan? Bush 1, someplace around there. Since then it's all been maintenance and turning myself into an ATM for a truly fine group of Orthopaedic surgeons, nice guys all, even if they won't let me keep the bits and pieces they fish out to shellac and make into bed side lamps or "conversation pieces" in my lounge...

Happy Birthday Sir Harry. Hope that it was a good one. Mine comes up in a couple of weeks. I will be the sweet young age of 67.

I tried out my micro touch 1 de razor again a couple of days ago when I had some extra time. The shave sent pretty well.  Practice makes perfect I guess.

Hope that everyone had a great 4th of July Holiday.
