Holy moly, it's been a while. Trying to get back into some good hobbies/forums, and thought I'd pop by and say I'm still alive.
Life has a way of catching you up sometimes I suppose.
Anywho, I'll try to be around more, some of you the name may ring a bell, but for the rest of you,
I'm Patrick, 33, used to live in the Portland OR area, but recently purchased a house! About 20 minutes west of Salem OR.
I shave currently with a Black Beauty or a vintage ball end that I had re-plated in nickel, a beautiful pink shaving brush that needs a new knot. It's got a funny badger face on it (yes I know what it is, I bought it in the charity auction years ago). I'll switch between that and my Parker dark badger brush with a marble faux ivory handle (can't beat the chunky weight of that handle and the skritch of dark badger sometimes).
I settled on Personna blades years ago, and am still going through my box of 100 (there are 12 left, so I just re-ordered some Israeli personnas this time.
TOBS is my cream, and the missy uses soap and an omega boar in the shower. (just ordered a puck of Dr Jon's Sakura Musk from WCS to try out)

Good to be back. The house was a big step lol, but our options were (we were forced to move by landlord) pay $14-1500 a month for another house to rent, or the same amount for a house to own. No real choice there haha!
