I use a straight, so my cost for saving is only about $20 a year.  The time thing does suck.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

I don't trust ANY ONE to put a straight razor against my throat, including, maybe especially, me.  LOL

Grew my beard on a two week canoe trip in Ontario in the summer of 1975 and have had it since then.

There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."

Its honestly not that hard. The prep and strecthing the skin makes it closer.  For me it was a $ deal.  At $4 a blade that only lasted 2 days. It did not take long to figure out that Iwould make my money back in less then a year.


Besides I like keeping tools sharp.


Freaks the little women out too this day.  Yet shr works with blades all day long.


For about $150 you cqn get everything you need.

Backstraps to beards ? Yeah, it's what we do. LOL
 I've had a mustache since the I started shaving in the 70's, the beard comes and goes with te seasons for the last 4 or 5 years.

The photo attached is later on Wednesday.

My son had one already de-boned from the previous week that was ready to grind. He had just finished cubing some steak and was grinding the rest into burger. We went in together and bought some good equipment to do our own. A neighbor let him borrow some equipment last year to see if he wanted to try processing his own meat and it turned out great.....it was the best sausage I've had.

The guy that was doing ours did good work, but at $75 for just a burger grind and cubing per deer....add sausage and it went up to $110....... plus gas to drive three counties over twice....it could get costly if he had a good year.

It cost us about $20 per deer in fat to do burger and pork to do sausage (including seasonings and casings).

He's already done enough this year to cover the cost of the equipment.

I get to do mine next week.

I've never owned a straight razor but once shaved with a very sharp pocket knife. It was a rough job and I had to go over it with a razor to clean it up. I don't shave very often and the free sample razors I got in the mail years ago will likely last me the rest of my life.

The old Africa hands, like Selous, talk about the need for fat. They could feed themselves and their followers on antelope type meat, but they had to have fat with it .
To solve the problem they would shoot a hippo, giraffe, or wart hog and render down enough fat for a while.
I found it odd that the writers in the American West lie Wm. F. Drannan, and Billy Dixon didn't mention the same problem.

I used a Bic lighter to shave in boot camp!

[emoji3]

Couldn't grow a beard till about 35.  The last few years I've been using these.  Good blade, half the cost, nice shave and even the wife uses em on her legs and bits..
