The wife's investment
For those who’ve been around a while, what is your final setup? I’m not talking desert island setups where you have to chose from your existing stuff what you would be forced to use exclusively for the rest of your life.
I’m talking about, of all the stuff you’ve tried over the years, what have you settled on as your go to items on a regular consistent basis. I’m talking real life, where you still have and occasionally use other stuff, but your final setup is what you always come back to, or restock, or reach for instinctively. It’s the setup that you could actually use exclusively for the rest of your life if you had to, but you still try other stuff and appreciate it all the more.
For me it’s:
EJ89 razor
Feather blade
Omega badger brush (can’t remember model)
Mitchell’s Wool Fat shaving soap
Speick after shave
I tossed Tabac shave soap in the picture because it runs tag team with MWF.
Many of you may not be there yet, or even want to be. That’s OK. For me, when I first came to B&B fifteen years ago, this was kind of my goal. Over the years I tried a lot of shave stuff and had a lot of fun. There were many distractions and even a sabbatical or two along the way and finally this is what a mountain of stuff boils down to for me.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to your responses.
