For part two let’s talk about different types and how to get started!   Valet Autostrop is a razor that uses disposable blades that can be stropped in the actual razor themselves. You use a hanging strop that is about one inch in diameter.    Gillette purchased the company as they considered them a major competitor.   There were 10 models of the Autostrop razor, all which take a certain blade, which is equivalent to the Feather FHS -10.           Next up is the Modern Style “Artist Club” Style SE razor.  This design came to fruition in the 2010’s with the introduction of the Cobra Classic.  Soon after the Mongoose company debuted with a three piece design that has since been replicated several dozen times over.      These unique razors use Feather Professional Blades (which were originally designed shavettes/hair shapers) and are readily available.    Tune in for part 3 where we talk about injector style razors, and the Oneblade.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Menlo Shaving Goods   The Nealon is the first razor from Menlo Shaving.  An aggressive razor made of stainless steel. A wet shaving company formed from the pandemic, Jermey is a one mad shop.   Listen for more details.  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Properly Cleaning/Sanitizing   Barbercide does wonders.
