Nice start.

what's your favorite and/or daily driver?

Attempted DE about 2 years ago with the Merkur and it's Merkur blades. Tore my face up and gave up. Came back to DE about a month ago practicing with the Edwin Jagger then bought a '57 Super Speed Flare....which was my daily driver until I moved to the '56 red tip. Love those TTO's!

I'm going to stay with that and my Astra SPs until I build good muscle memory then give the feather blade another shot. After that I'll switch it up with one of the others.

Just received the Parker 82R today so I HOPE that's it for my RAD.....at this point. :scared:
 
This is just the beginning. After three months in this madness, I had about 50 razors and 25 different blades. I was reading only the razors/blades section of the forum, and was wondering why people would want to have more than one brush, especially in the three digit price, and what's so special about using soaps instead creams. The good thing was I didn't expect to save money and embraced the hobby. Don't worry, you'll stop buying razors eventually, and will end up with 50 brushes and that many soaps and creams.
 
That makes me feel better about my 10 safety razroes (one of which my wife is using), 1 cheap from shaper razor and 2 straights.
Ok, not that much better.
 
Well done JB... Well done, very impressing! Now you have to work on your brush collection! This is what I love about this place... Everyone here is an enabler! :punk:
 
Searching for "Gillette Safety Razor" on eBay is a dangerous thing.

I gott figure out a storage method. Right now I got 'em stacked in my medicine cabinet.

Ive already got 6 brushes.....
