I would call myself a hobbiest but by your definition I’m more of a veteran. That sounds strange because I haven’t been at this for very long. Over the course of 1.5 years, I’ve tried lots of things and have dialed in on a small selection that works for me and I’m content with that. This is in line with my other interests where I tend to collect a small selection of top shelf products that serve different purposes. My goal is always to complete the perfect lineup without too much clutter. I got a little more carried away than normal with straights razors and brushes.
