Thread: It's a Boy!

My wife and I just found out that our baby due in December is going to be a boy! So I am already planning on how to pass along my newfound hobby.

I still remember "shaving" with my dad when I was young using a fake plastic safety razor.

I'm thinking that I will find an e-bay deal on a straight, and grind off the edge so that my son can do the same, but with a little more style!

I'm sure some of you have experience in this arena and any other ideas would be great.

Congrats!

I know there was a member here who bought a Zeepk razor with really colorful scales and dulled the edge right down so his son could "shave" with dad. IIRC he got the Zeepk strop as well, but I could be wrong!

Another member made some wooden razors a while back too.

Enjoy shaving with your son and congratulations on your news!

Congrats!

I had a straight whose blade was too warped to be honed, so I ground the edge off and turned it into a toy for the boy....now we can shave together!

Never TOO EARLY to start, i have to say.......

Cheers,

CONGRATS on the son!!!

Btw you could always buy a shavette for 10$ and never put a blade.
just another option...

I really think I would go with the "Just Like Dads" approach...He'll be more apt to follow...and Congats to You and the Misses...


Now lets see names....
DD
Thiers
Wade

Congratulations!

congrats on the baby and never to early to start him off on being addicted.
