Upvoting this whole chain because I can’t multi-upvote OP too

For sure, “Type 2 fun,” is still fun even if it’s hard.

Full respect to inox gang, but I’m Cast Iron crew for life

This is precisely what I came here to say!

I avoided shaving for more than a decade. Electric razors and cartridge jobs left me with endless ingrown hairs and irritation so beard and clippers for me. The only thing I hadn’t tried was a safety razor for fear of nicking myself into oblivion.

Enter the Henson Al-13. I’m very happy with it. Amazingly easy, close shave with very little in terms of nicking. I switched from the RK blades it came with to a slightly milder blade and I’m super happy! I can shave clean every day or two with no ingrown hairs, no irritation, no nicks.

Brilliant equipment and extremely well machined. You can switch to milder blades if you’re struggling, or more aggressive ones if you need. The ability to tune the handle to fit your skin and hair is absolutely game changing. Truly BIFL.

… and nothing of value was lost.

That is one helluva nice stick.

I see blue and gold. Am I having a stroke?

I signed the petition earlier today, I’m happy to see it being boosted here!
