Previous Years Year in Review Episodes:
Final Thoughts for the Decade 2010-2019
Wow! It’s been a great year and very eventful decade for wet shaving! As the majority of our listeners began wet shaving this decade, it’s amazing to see how we’ve come!
To remember in this decade:
First new American made razor: Weber 2012
First CNC Machined Razor Tradere
First USA Adjustable Razor: REX Ambassador
First TTO Adjustable razor since Gillette: Rockwell
New Toggle Razor: Janus
Adjustable Loft Shave Brush:ShaveMac
At the beginning of this decade there were:
- Less than 10 artisans, now there are over 100.
- Less than 5 major online retailers, now there are 15
- Only 2 major forums, now there are 7
- No new Gillette DE razors for the USA market
- There are over 10 custom straight razor makers
- No Wet Shaving Podcasts (there have been 5 at one point)
- There were less than 5 custom brush makers now there are over 20
- There were less than 15 Youtubers (Now there are too many to count)
Make 2020-2029 count!
