"Carl's Lounge" (Off-Topic Discussion, Traditional Knife "Tales & Vignettes")

Hang on...just to confirm I was in my late 40s...😵‍💫
Yeah your initial story makes it sound like you were 13 and are currently 23 ;) My favorite part was when you said ... "I was ordered to shave." LoL

I like the idea of using one of these old straight razors or razor jacks... but in no way will I ever allow myself to use something like that to shave my own face 🤣 If I am ever feeling nostalgic and the opportunity is there, I might pay for a shave and feel like Matt Dillon for a half hour. The Marshal Matt Dillon... not the guy with the big teeth that was in "There's Something About Mary."

You are not familiar with the term, "She Who Must Be Obeyed"?

I grew up with "safety razors" and needed enough styptic pen from the usage to satisfy any curiosity about straight razors.
