Baxter review
Aug 19, 2008 - 5:51 PM - by Doc

I was sent a couple of shaving products by David Wessell and asked to do a review on them after I had tried them for awhile. The products were made by a company called Baxter of California who I had never really heard of but was eager to give a try. I did a little research and found out the Baxter of California company was founded in the mid 1960’s, by Baxter Finley, who was in search of a quality skincare line for men. At this time men’s skincare products were not as plentiful as they are today. So Baxter, teaming up with a local chemist, created the first skin conditioner for men, Super Shape, an initial step for men’s specified skincare. In 2000 the company was sold to Jean-Pierre Mastey who designed the modern image of Baxter and runs the company today. Baxter of California was recently accredited with Best Shaving Cream from Instinct Magazines, Grooming Awards.

Well ok, so we have a little history but how does it work? The two products that David sent to me are the Super Close Shave Formula and the Baxter After Shave Balm. When I opened the box and took out the product the first thing I noticed was the interesting plastic bottles Baxter has designed for their product. They are an attractive blue with a white label featuring the Baxter evolution logo. I really like this no nonsense... [Read More]

UK Gathering!
Aug 07, 2008 - 1:25 PM - by dwessell
First ever UK SRP meet!!

Saturday 20th September 1300 – 1700
Kings Heath Community Centre, Birmingham


All SRP members are cordially invited to this, the first, official SRP meet in the UK.

As we are limited to 40 places (hall size) a list has been started on the UK meet thread in the forum (Get togethers and meetings) showing commitment to attend. Please add your name to the list - this will also enable an email to be sent to you to carry along with any razors you may bring giving you good legal justification for so doing. After a week or so we may open it up to interested parties at Badger & Blade and Britishblades.com. The more the merrier!

During the day we hope to have a honing demonstration and small restoration workshop with plenty of opportunity to get hints and tips from other members on honing, stropping, maintaining, collecting and using razors and other shaving essentials. Bring along some of your favourite pieces to display and show off to others (just remember to pack them safely for the journey). A big part of the day will be putting faces to names and sharing experiences – everyone has something to offer!

Steve from Invisible Edge will have some Dovo stock for purchase on the day at a special price. He has also sponsored the event by paying the hall fee and by putting some time in to help gather some of the amazing... [Read More]

SRP Webcast!
Aug 04, 2008 - 1:13 PM - by dwessell
I would say that the SRP webcast was a resounding success! Everyone had a good time, and I think a lot of information was passed around.

I'll be updating this thread with videos of the webcast as we make them. So without further ado, here's #1.

(It starts at 5 minutes into it.. Someone forgot to hit the record button!). (That person was probably drinking) (That person was probably me!).

Webcast 8/3/08
Aug 01, 2008 - 12:36 PM - by dwessell
Constant Shavers,

It gives me great pleasure to announce that the first SRP webcast will be help on 8/3/08 at 7pm Eastern (11pm UTC).

Lynn will give a honing demonstration, so those of you that might be struggling to find that perfect edge should tune in. He'll be available for specific questions afterwards as well.

The Winners of the raffle for the July 12th Record Breaking Event
Jul 13, 2008 - 10:01 PM - by str8razor
Well last night was quite an event. With all of us signing on to the chat room and discussing various subjects and then when the time came for the raffle to start we killed the server. Our hosts tell us at one point we had 3000+ trying to access the website. What really happened is that Dave spilled beer on the server and he is trying to blame all of us..... We didn't break the record but I think that all that got signed in had a good time. We even had a moment when Lynn dropped in and said HI to everyone. Regardless it was a fun evening and now for the listing of the winners but first I wanted to thank Dave for trying to make this event happen I know he put in a lot of time on this. We had some problems but maybe they can be figured out and have another one of these.

The winners are:

1st Place: gugi

2nd Place: mastermute

3rd Place: riftere

CONGRATULATIONS ALL
