Hello all. I registered about 3 1/2 years ago but haven't posted much until I re-surfaced today, so I thought I should step in here with a how-do-you-do.
I electric shaved for my first shaving years. The dryness and irritation drove me to the Sensor Excel for in the mid 90's, until I tired of the expense of cartridges. I was drawn to the permanence, workmanship, and family provenance of my granddad's 1966 Super Speed, which I'd had for some time, so I started using it somewhere around early 2013, and haven't looked back.
I've been lucky to grow a decent collection of varied razors (mostly Gillettes with a Treet baton and a couple of Injectors) inherited from family and family friends. When I'm able to take some new pictures, I'll post some shots of the den. I'm more of a functional shaver than a hobbyist, but I do dabble. I guess I'm a minimalist at heart, despite the fact that my stable has grown to about 15 razors and a handful of brushes and soaps. ;-)
So that's me. Howdy!
