Cool, thanks. I want one, I mean, I watch Bing's videos on the net and love the look. I've seen Canadians that look similar and are cheaper so I'll probably grab one of them instead.
Did Bing Crosby design the Bing pipe or was it named after him because he was popular and enjoyed that style? Is it essentially a Canadian with a longer stem?
@jameral, it might help your skin, it did mine but be ready to experiment. If you have bad skin I would suggest trying witch hazel. I use it daily right after I finish shaving. I let it dry and then toss on a nice smelling aftershave. I was surprised how many ladies perk right up and compliment...
With DE's it is about experimenting. Some shave soaps will work for you better then others, same with blades as mentioned above, razors are important and even the temp of your water. But once you get it all together...you'll love it. I tried to grow my beard out in Oct. but the DE ruined it for...
I grew my beard out for about 5 years because I hated shaving. My wife wanted me to shave it off so I looked around online and found DE shaving. Now I love the ritual of shaving and look forward to it everyday.

I've been using Proraso in the green tub for the last 6 months and really enjoyed it so tonight I picked up a tub of the white shaving soap with aloe and green tea and some Adidas aftershave.
It can be time consuming, some folks really get into the ritual of it, I don't. My wife encourages me to use a DE because it makes my face baby soft and the all the scents that go along with DE shaving she enjoys.
If you visit Badger and Blade forum you'll find a few threads about cold water shaving.

This may sound crazy but I switched to using a double edge safety razor back in July after reading some online articles and loved it, I'll never switch back to "modern" shaving methods.
I just ordered 100 blades (that's about 400 shaves) and a new 3 piece L6 by Lord. This will last me over a...
