The New Book is Here! 

 

Yes, I wrote a book.  “The Modern Guide To Straight Razor Shaving” was released on Nov 10th.  

 

This was an idea of mine 4 years ago.  After writing countless articles, I wanted to compile all the material into a physical book so wet shavers could have a “one stop shop” for all things regarding straight razors.  

 

I began working on the project back in 2019, and had to put it on the back burner as “Life Happens” but was determined to finish it here in 2023 (This has been on my News Resolutions list for the past 4 years).  

 

I had no idea what writing a book entailed, other than reading them and watching countless videos and reading literally every book I could find regarding wet shaving in order to understand what truly works.  

 

After about a dozen or so drafts (yes really) and proofreading editing etc I was able to get what I feel is a good representation of how to use a straight razor in the 21st century. 

 

I made a point of referencing my material from past publications, re-editing a lot of it, and adding some new stuff in the process.  I did not use any AI (artificial intelligence) “helpers” , just good old fashioned writing and research. 

This book is a true representation of how to be a straight razor user today and is my interpretation of it.   I hope you enjoy it!

The new book is here!  Available on Amazon. If your interested in carrying it at your shop please email me at [email protected]
