Williams SS (no)
Burma Boar Brush (no)

Badger Brush
Sandalwood soaps

 

Wetshaving?
"Barbershop" pure bristle (used it for years - no more!)
Williams soap (Ditto)
M3 or similar (still used, but only if yesterday's shave left me with :mad

The Obsession?
My dad's 1960 SS
Taylor's Lavender
EJ Medium Silvertip
all still part of the rotation

 

Well let's see if I remember:

Burma Boar brush
Williams Mug soap
I think it was the Sensor

Maybe 3-4 years ago...

Raf

 

AOS gift box from my wife about 4 or 5 years ago.

Lavender Cream
Lavender Preshave
Lavender Balm
Pure Badger Brush

Used the M3 with it.

 

Ship safety razor
Wilkinson (German) blade
Proraso Green cream
Wilkinson boar brush

The only one that is still in my rotation is the Proraso. Maybe I'll get nostalgic one day and see how the old equipment functions with my mad new skillz.

 

Shaved for years with:
M3 Turbo, or Sensor, and
Their Respective blades
Old Spice Canned Cream
Old Spice, or Aqua Velva Aftershave

Then, in April 06 with:
Merkur Classic OC
Merkur DE Blades
Herban Cowboy SS
Herban Cowboy Boar Brush
Same aftershaves as above

The collection multiplied weekly and at an exponential rate, and the only thing from the above listings that I still use is the Velva

 

Ain't THAT the truth?! Truly amazing!!

 

Originally when I started:

Ingram Shave cream
Wilkinson Sword Brush
Gillette GII (Atrac)

When I started to get serious:
Proraso Soap
Merkur Futur
Proraso Brush

I have spent an absolute fortune since then!

 

Not to mention the £70.00 you're about to spend on the BK8!! :drool

 

That remains to be seen

Any sign of your BK4?

 

Fergie.....you have awakened an urge for a Kent....but as I am covered for creams.....I fancy a T8 or a T12......and I really MUST have one.....'cause I won't be spending £70.00.....only a maximum of £50.....that means if I do I will save at least £20.00. HELP

 

Monday, I guess. Thought it would be here yesterday or today, but no luck. Guess I'll have to suffer through using the 8.

 

...I cant even remember what I had for lunch today !!
