My spreadsheet is still going strong.
Here are the results for 2018:
Shaves: 167
Fewer than 2017 (277) or 2016 (190)
Most used Razors
Eversharp Fashion Razor - 52
Ever-Ready 1912 - 33
Bunny V3 - 15
Nothing has changed here. I am an SE shaver and the Fashion Razor is Queen.
Most used DE Razors
Schick Krona - 5
Tatara Masamune - 4
Undisclosed Prototype - 3
Gillette Fatboy - 3
A bad year for DE razors - mostly pass arounds.
Most used Cartridge Razors
Gillette Fusion - 7
Wilkinson Protector - 3
Dorco Pace 4 - 1
Even worse for cartridge razors
Most used Blades
GEM stainless - 55
Chinese Schick - 40
Schick Twin NOS - 16
No DE blades anywhere near the top
Most used Brushes
MÜHLE 25mm Synthetic - 108
Jayaruh 302 - 15
TOST LE 2018 - 15
Yaqi Badger - 15
The MÜHLE finally got competition, but it still rules.
Most used Soaps:
Tabac Original - 85
De Vergulde Hand - 28
Faena Mastic - 11
Predictable.
Most used Aftershaves
Tabac Original - 39
Tüff Sensitiv - 28
Hagner Tobacco - 25
The Hagner was nice for the price, but I won't restock.
Shave Of The Year 2018
A very happy 2019 to you all!
