I am a new WS (almost two years) and wish I had thrown out my Philishave electric years ago. My collection of soaps is rapidly expanding (at least by my standards). I started with many of the Classics: TOBS Jeremyn, Proraso Green, Cella, Tabac, Trumper Coconut and MWF. Recent additions included SJoL Lime/Pepper and Bergamot/Sandalwood, Soap Commander Endurance and Classic Spice, Rockwell Barbershop and Razorock XXX and Dead Sea.
My daily razor is the Rockwell 6s (which replaced a Merkur 33c) and I’m getting braver with my Dovo Best Quality 6/8. Checks and neck are no trouble, still nervous around my mouth and chin. My favourite DE blade is Astra SP. My shave brushes are a Kent BLK 4 and a recently purchased Razorock Plissoft. And I recently splurged on a scuttle from Classic Edge. Love it!
Thanks guys. I look forward to meeting everyone and learning more.
