Gents,
I've been on this forum for about two years now and have slowly moved from wanting to try everything to wanting just a simple setup that will give me pleasure and perform the task I want of it. I still love shaving, but I don't want to be the guy that has more stuff than his wife...
In the spirit of B&B I thought I would post my musing's as I now have the time to slowly test and work on all my stuff in order to work out exactly what I want to keep. As a general rule I will be wanting to move to a more orderely selection of one aggressive razor, one mild, one straight, a few creams/soaps and aftershaves.
To kick it off, here is a current inventory of all my stuff. Please feel free to post suggestions, advice, comments, whatever if it interests you. Perhaps I can even be of help!
