What I like is when people claim it'll save moneyRun away! Run away while you still can!
I started a few months ago. Now I've got two DEs, two shavettes, four straights, three brushes, and four different kinds of soap.
Good to see you Joe. I'm 47 as well and joined the forum recently, but I'd been using a 34c and 37c for a while. Its good starting with the 34c but wait until you try the 37c.
I'm still (literally) feeling may way into straight razor shaving, that's a worth a go as well.
