I saw in the double edge razor sub-forum that a member who has been on here since 2016 had never had a Merkur before so he bought a 34, and it got me thinking about common shaving products that I have never used. I'm sure that there are more than a few, but the one that came to mind was TOBS, an old standard in wet-shaving that I'm sure most have at least tried once. Feel free to tell me about TOBS, but also share the common software and hardware that you haven't used before.

Like I said, probably more than a few: Tabac, Pinaud Clubman, anything from Edwin Jagger.
For me:
Soaps: Arko, TABAC, Taylor of Bond Street, and others
Razor: Merkur, Feather, any Adjustable.

Never used alum or styptic. Never used a pre shave whatever whatever. Never used an injector razor, or vintage SE razor. Probably more DE blades I haven’t tried than have tried. Plenty of discovery ahead!
Hot sauce as an aftershave
Believe it or not...
Splaying any of my brushes (after initial trials).

I don't recall ever using a cartridge razor (but I have used many disposables).
Lilac Vegetal.....I smelled it once many years ago at one of our meetups, and it was horrible.
Same here.
Never used any kind of aftershave. I don't like the smell following me around all day and for that matter i don't like soaps that leave a lingering scent but i have tried them
Arko is numero uno on the list.
Never used a DE, SE or GEM for face shaving.
Also I've never used Tabak or Arko. Tabak will be, maybe.
JNats, Horse hair, pre shave, brushless cream....
