You guys might want to think about a straight razor. I haven't bought a razor cartridge in 10 years. Plus you get a better shave.
and um... seriously, he's trying to sell people on the idea that it's *water* that makes the blade dull? how about super thin steel that always has to travel at the same angle through course beard hair? that's just funny. Sure the lube will help, some. but it's not the water that's making the blade dull. IV |

He needs to branch out the product line. We need some K-y that lasts longer than 2 minutes.
 I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope. |

Oh, and the patent isn't on some special lube, it's on a method for storing a razor in a cup filled with oil.

About 5+ years ago, I was going to buy some razors. The pack was $8, I said "F' that". The beard grows.

Thanks dallas !
So ( if I read the attached patent information correctly ) just get some mineral oil at the drug store, and I am g.t.g.? |

Store it in alcohol, mineral oil, whatever you want, or just keep them dry. Apparently the trick is not letting the blades oxidize between use.
Here is an article along the lines of what I posted earlier. http://www.chicagotribune.com/...nov04,0,936147.story Could always be manly and give it a squirt of WD-40 ! hehe, that might be interesting. |

WD-40 has some strange qualities. A friend of ours had a really painful shoulder issue a few years ago. He went to the doctor, a couple of times, and they told him there was little to do except take pain meds or possible surgery. He got desperate and one day he was working with WD-40 and decided why the hell not. He sprayed his shoulder with it, a couple of times a day for about 3 days and his paid went away and has never come back. I understand the makers of WD-40 refuse to address the use for that purpose. Something about medical restrictions. Elk There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre.

I am guessing you still have to rinse the blade... I've got a beard like an Alpine forest and my blade gums up on every swipe of a 1-day beard.

The mineral oil seems like it would work. I am going to buy some, try it out. Having to shave for work (I work at a refinery making glorious gasoline!!) means I go through way to many blades. It's not cheap, nor is it painless when the blades have 3 or more shaves.

Dry your blades with a hair dryer after each use.

If you are using multi blades, a quick rinse w/ water prior to use does not ! get the mineral oil out and it will clog easily.
I drip a tiny amount of alcahol to disperse the mineral oil |
