Thanks to Joe for taking over during my absence in the last episode! We’re working diligently to line up new interviews, reviews, and give-aways for you in the future. Joe and I have been hard-at-work in the “real life” but have some great content lined up for future episodes.

We’re saddened to hear of the recent closure by Stroppe Shoppe. They have suspended sales on their website, although the remaining Stroppe Shoppe product can be purchased at Maggard Razors. We reached out for a comment on the closure, and understandably, Stroppe Shoppe has more things to tend to. We wish them the best of luck, and are truly saddened to see them go.

  • Walgreen’s is now carrying Gillette Platinum Plus double edge safety razor blades.
  • The blades come in a pack of 9 in very simple packaging and retail for $6
  • On the back of the package there is a picture of a classic safety razor with the quote “We’ll stop making razor blades when we can’t keep making them better” -King C. Gillette.
  • It is obvious now that Gillette is threatened by the classic shaving community and is starting to get their feet back in the door quietly without any fanfare.
  • We’ll keep a close eye on Gillette for the next few months.
