double-edged razors

My friend Steven introduced me to a website, The Art of Manliness (http://artofmanliness.com/). One of the articles that grabbed me was on shaving (http://bit.ly/16VSI). In the picture are two safety razors that I bought from Bart’s Flea market for $5 and $8 (and I now find that I probably overpaid!) and restored. As part of the cleaning process, I boil the razors, soak them in hydrogen peroxide, then soak them in barbicide (the blue liquid in old barbershops that they soaked combs in). I really, really want to kill anything on them (blood-borne pathogens).

On my sabbatical, I hope to take a good soaking in God that will kill the nasty stuff in my life.

Note to Laramie friends: if you want to give this a try, I will keep an eye out for razors to restore for you.
