    I liked that movie but somehow was unaware of that scene.

      Apparently this scene has triggered a massive straight razor boom

        That’s great. I was at a large company when that movie came out and a bunch of GenXers took up straights at that time. I guess the movie might have had an influence. I’ve always been enamored with the elegance of straights. I feel like I’ve finally cracked the code with them. As an aside, you posted that you have 430ish straight shaves. I think you’re off by about 100. I’m currently at 541, and you are almost always a little ahead of me.

          I think I’m ahead of you in open blade shaves by 4, but I’m pretty sure I have only 436 straight razor shaves. I use my Wecks quite a lot

            Ahh. That makes sense. The numbers have to work in order for me to feel comfortable in the world :)

              Oh, then you must have a similarly negative reaction as I did to the volkswagen crate 😅

                I like very much that a benefit of the volkswagen test is that it runs faster. 🤣
