Yes its an odd request . I got it through the post this morning.
Harry's for a close shave waffle waffle.
I have a chin like Desperate Dan and if going anywhere often have to shave twice with having a cleft in my chin its easy to take a chunk out and you can get blood out of a stone . Yes it says great things about them . But is it true or another waste of time and money .

Haven’t any experience of Harry’s
I use the Japanese blades made by Feather in a folding cut throat and in a Murker 33C double edged safety razor when I’m travelling
They are by far the best blades in my opinion having tried just about all the brands

As above - I use Feathers blades in a vintage Gillette razor from the 1960's. However... if you're after a more modern razor to protect your chin from Pythonesque disasters, try these chaps: https://www.cornerstone.co.ukBritish company too, unlike Harry's.

They spend a lot on marketing and free trials - see their ads all over the place.

I’ve been using Harry’s for about a year now and I find the product to be excellent.

They spend a lot on marketing and free trials - see their ads all over the place. These American type shave clubs are certainly being pushed in the UK There must be a lot of profit in the them so makes me think the products are cheap

I have stuck with boring old Gillette 3-5 blade jobs for years. However for many years I have used Taylor’s Shaving Cream https://www.amazon.co.uk/Taylor-Old-Bond...PTQ2PD92FS3GJF6I use a miniscule amount and find that the blades last very well with it. Tim

I keep getting shaving stuff as gifts. Trouble is I have a beard! Looks like hints to me. I trim my beard with electric dog clippers once a week using Wahl make clipper.
