My Goal

[TexOkie Shaver]

I’ve used my Rockwell 6S and Feather blades since about last May. You get real proficient using one blade and one razor.

This is just the way men normally shaved until more recently. It's easy to go for a month on one setup unless a shaving-related ADD gets in the way.

I definitely have Shaving ADD.

I definitely have Shaving ADD.

It seems your case is very advanced...perhaps incurable.

I am able and I have completely standardized my shaving routine. The rest of my razors are just collecting dust in case my children would want to try more razors later when they are old enough to need frequent shaving.

My simple standardized shaving routine is as this:
- iKon X3 paired with a lightweight handle from a Saiver razor
- Sputnik blades
- Speick shaving cream
- Omega boar brush.

A couple of time during a whole year at most I deviate from this routine and then I realized that I had nothing to win by deviating.

I always knew I am an incurable something or other.

I've used the same type of razor (Fatboy) since I started shaving, with the exception of The Dark Years (Mach 3 carts, shaving in the shower.) I've only had two Fatboys over the years, and I don't think I'll ever buy another type of razor. That way madness lies: it's a rabbit-hole down which I don't want to fall. I look at my mountain of soaps and creams, and I feel lucky that soaps, etc., are the only area in which I have gone wild. But I am now very contented with the one razor, a vintage butterscotch Floris brush, the same shaving bowl, GSB blades, MdC soaps, 4711 cologne as an AS splash. And my art deco froggy blade bank.

Eerily similar...same Feather AS-D2 every day with MdC and 4711 cologne. A great combination of soap and splash.

Thanks for all of the great replies guys.
I appreciate it.
I've now committed to just using my favorite
Tech razor for one month. Wish me luck!

Luck!

Which Tech is your favorite?

I wish you luck!
I failed At one point I attained my goal with one razor, one brush, one soap, and one aftershave. (there is a brotherhood for those willing to attain minimalism)
And RAD kicked in again so I had to acquire some of my gear back.
Just one advice: don´t sell or pif all of your gear too fast. Put it aside, and experience your simple setup for some time.

By the way, the Tech is also on my radar. So my RAD isn´t cured yet.

Since I got Rockwell 6S, this is the only razor I shave with. It's just that good

Love that froggy blade bank! That one has stuck in my memory since seeing it in a thread awhile ago!
