Murdock Barber Vincent Vincent (so Canadian they named him twice) hooked me up with this old shaving book he found online in pdf format. He thought that unlike him, most people wouldn’t be interested  in reading a whole book on shaving even if they had it in their hands, let alone as a PDF, but he’d be wrong wouldn’t he Murdock ladies and gentlemen?

Take a look at the whole book here and have a gander at the images below.

If you want to find out more about traditional shaving then watch Murdock’s shaving videos here including The Five Stages of the Perfect Wet Shave and Traditional Razors.  And if you fancy taking on a cut throat shave but are slightly fretful of using a cut throat razor yourself – the razor of the real man – then book a traditional wet shave appointment with one of our expert barbers here.
