Hey Gene! That's a cool story about Sinatra and Tony Orlando. I'm a big Sinatra fan and I've never heard that story before. Sinatra is one of the first people I think of when people say they don't get good shaves from vintage razors. Look at Sinatra, early Sean Connery, Elvis, and look at pictures of all your relatives from WWII to the early 60s. That's the time when there were more men shaving every day than any other time in history. I don't understand how you can look at that era and say that you can't get a good shave with what they were using.
