I can't wait till the a.m. to try out my Kent Blk 8 that i received in the mail today. I've been using a tweezerman for the last 5 months, which has been pretty decent actually, but i decided to step it up a notch or 2 and go for a good silver tip. I contemplated shaving tonight but i've had more than a few cocktails and tequila shots and i'm new to DE shaving so i don't want to take any risks. I also got a nice stand to display my new brush and my Merkur 34c. Maybe i'll put up some pics tomorrow. I've been using Santa Maria Novella cream for a couple months and i really enjoy it even though it's a bit pricey. What are other people's thoughts?
