Hi all,
I've been a member a year, but went and got married last year, then work got crazy. I'd had a beard for years and now prefer to keep clean shaven. London Lockdown has me needing things to enjoy, and I'm hoping the next razor purchase will be something that fits the bill.
I'm a big fan of the British made Super Sword Edge blades, and have stocked up on these from a number of eBay sales in the last year after testing out a few vintage blades.
Years and years ago, after Mach 3, I started with a dovo straight razor - too hard to master when I was in my late teens/early 20s. Back to cartridges on and and for a couple of years, and then I was given a Merkur 42C a couple of years ago, and have now stepped up to the 34C as I prefer the shorter handle. This has been the daily driver for a while now.
I don't feel the need to go with an adjustable comb as yet, but I'm aware the 34C is not known for being aggressive - a beginner's razor.
Any suggestions for the next step?
