Help me get an all-Canadian shave

I, mostly for the heck of it, want to try and get a hold of various Canadian-made shaving products so that I can have an all-Canadian shave.

I don't think there are any DE blades or brushes that are made in Canada, but I know there are Canadian-made aftershaves, shaving creams, shaving soaps, and vintage DE razors. I'm just not sure which ones are worth checking out.

So . . . any recommendations?

My expirence with Booster After Shaves has been good. Especially for the price.

Benton Clay soap, JM Frasers (I think) for software
A Benton Clay Shave Brush (complete with a maple leaf) for a brush
Booster AS
Canadien Gillettes for the Hardware
No idea on blades.

1937 Schick Injectors were made in Canada. I sold mine recently.
Blades at that time (1937) were made in Canada as well, but it is difficult to verify them from U.S. made blades made at the same time.

RazoRock preshaves and Waxes are made in Canada (I just checked mine)

Not sure about the AS sprays, but the waxes are incredible.

Malaspina stuff is also made in Canada (check with her to confirm), but their creams ans ASB's are great.

Good luck in your quest to gather the items for an all Canadian shave.

should probably get some smokes before the shave.

The GR shave cream is made here as is JM Fraser's, I don't think we make it but aqua velva original sport is local only to us, no blades that I know of but I thought I saw a brush maker in Quebec on eBay once

Please excuse my ignorance, but what it GR shave cream?

Malaspina is Canadian: http://www.malaspinasoapfactory.ca/

GR is Gentlemens refinery, you can buy it thru fendrihan he is a vender located in the greater toronto area, uses all natural ingrediants, organic essential oils and the like, the barber who started company used to be an executive barber at T&H, and a master barber for AOS... i think the stuff is made by JM Fraser for him.. i like the standard line stuff has a lavender scent to it

Can not help with the blades, but a great soap made in Mirabel, QC can be found at http://www.mjsoapshop.com
Good luck with the razor and brush.
