What are you waiting on to arrive?

[Glen_Lee]

I've been using the King of Shaves Azor for years and various Gillette cartridge razors since my early teens.
I have no idea why I 'got into' DE shaving but I have. I've only been looking for a couple of weeks but I've got the basics now.
Merkur 34c, Razorock 'Bruce' brush, Aesop bowl, TOBS Sandalwood cream, plus various blades.
Can't wait to get started.

Sounds like you are good to go. Enjoy the exploration. Sadly, you will never have enough gear Enjoy the shaves and the forum & relax

Blackmass you are in for a treat. Just remember the three P's. Pressure, pressure,pressure. Just shave off the lather and the razor will take care of everything else. Enjoy mate. Hope it goes well.

Cheers Wayne. Thank you for the kind words and advice, really appreciate it.

Waiting for

And

Big thanks to TSR for the raffles! Couldn't quite decide between the slant and the regular head, so I ended up topping with own funds and getting both, in OC.

I have both Halvor. You are in for a treat. Enjoy them.

I wanted to say that I waited for 39c but with all this postponing it has already arrived to join his smaller brother 37c!

Top marks for Hone.

I have some custom Egyptian Musk tallow-based shaving soap coming from Eric at Dapper Dragon. And to go with it, I've ordered some Jovan Musk splash aftershave.

My missus would have a fit if that was my haul for a decade never mind the month. Lol.

She doesn't know about them all... [emoji28]

In all seriousness though, this was a one off, there were a lot of razors that I wanted in my collection and they are all razors I will use and hopefully hold on to... There may come a time I want to move them on, but as it stands I won't be buying any more razors and these will be my babies to look after!

Haha had to include you in the enabler list Billy! I will fight to resist both wedge, rolls razor and straight razor chat from you though, the furthest I'm going is stropping blades!

Picked up this vintage butterscotch Saybrooke brush.
I think I've only ever seen the brand mentioned a handful of times so it might prove to be difficult to find some good information about the brand. Looks rather nice though and seemed ok for $12
