Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

Looks like you and HoosierShave had similar plans today. Funny thing is last night I was putting away some blades and I saw a couple of Derby blades that came with my first razor purchase and thought I should give these a try again. Well you guys helped me decide they will stay packed away. Happy2

Same here Marko. I love my 102. I haven't tried a Derby in it and I don't plan to either. Today it was with a Viking Sword blade on its 3rd use.
