Shave Newbie
As promised, I'll take a couple of minutes and introduce myself. My name is Shaun, and I'm from Kansas City, MO. I have been into vintage double edge wet shaving for almost 20 years, but not much of a "forum" guy. I have a great friend ("OpusX" on this forum) who got me into the hobby. I have a small but proud collection of about 15 razors, mostly vintage Gillettes. My other great love is homebrewing beer/meads/ciders of which I am kegging a Belgian tripel today.

Looking forward to getting to know you guys and share our love of shaving.

Welcome friend! I too used to brew beer, cider, wine, and mead, but got out of it after getting married(weird coincidence right?). Glad to have you!

Do you have much in the way soaps and aftershaves or do you have your tried and true?

Best,

Matt
 
Welcome to The Cadre Shaun! I’m about an hour down the road in Warrensburg.
I’ve met up with Tony a time or two, hope to meet up with you sometime too.
If you’d like some FaceTime with some of us we have regular Zoom calls which are a lot of fun. Got a special one happening tonight, for the holiday if you’re free.
I really want to get into mead making, just haven’t made the jump yet. Tony got me into hot sauce making and I’ve Jumped way into that rabbit hole, lol.
Again, welcome. Good to see another local here. If we get a few more, I may put some local meetups together again.

Welcome Shaun. I haven't lived in KCMO for about 40 years but I grew up on the corner of Thompson and Askew in the Northeast district.

OpusX has given me quite a few samples so I haven't settled on a favorite yet. I'm open to trying different types and scents. Always on the hunt for a great soap/aftershave combo.

Spider,
That sounds awesome, I'd love for all of us locals to meet up and have a pint and a cigar.
