Baxter Aftershave is one of the most important cremes I have in my arsenal, aside from the testosterone rub, the alcohol swabs I use before injecting my EPO, and Butt Butter or whatever my chamois creme is called. At $15 a pop, it’s not particularly cheap, but the addition of moisturizers and antiseptic keep irritation at a minimum.
Not only does it have a pleasant smell and refreshing feeling, it opens the pores after a good, close shave to help moisturize and revitalize, leaving your skin clean and smooth with no bumps or rash. Just the other day, a neighbor remarked that my shave was magnificently smooth and close. I couldn’t have done it without Baxter.
Oh, and before you start thinking I’m some kind of sissy, know this: I never use this shit on my face. No sir, the good stuff is for the legs only.

The wife, the guns, the bike, the kids. Baxter: for all your shaving needs.
@frank Crap, I knew you'd say that... decisions, decisions.
I was getting pretty scared until I read the last paragraph. Whew! That was close.
@frank
Does the VMH know that your neighbours have been caressing your legs? If you hadn't replied to my post with a link to the Baxter article the question would never have been asked!
Baxter makes other nice products. On the suggestion of someone here (I forget who), I bought a Philips Norelco Bodygroom Pro. It doesn't achieve the silky smooth shave of a razor, but it doesn't slash my legs either.
A dab of Baxter Razor Bump gel and my guns are looking better than ever.
I'm a Gillette foam/Mach 3 kinda guy. Never a nick, only by a BIC!
This was my tuning point to go from Schick to Gillette;
I shave by scraping a brick down my legs until all the hair is gone or I can't see any hair for the blood. Rather than use some fancy smelly ointment to sooth the shave I just get my wolf to bite me in the face to take my mind off it. Once I'm done I ride 500km to my work as a lumberjack.

And to think I was going to comment on the manly smell and the restorative properties of tea tree oil.
One of my cycling buddies just told me that he uses this...

It's kinda shaped like a brick...
Savages.
A gentleman uses this.
