    Hi all!

    I have been dabbling with wet shaving for about a month now, started out by reading threads before actually making the change. As a 55 year old using the "latest and greatest" shaving systems for my shaving life, I did had a bit of a transition, but I am really enjoying my new morning ritual!

    What I am using:
    Edwin Jagger DE89lbl
    Perfecto badger brush
    Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandlewood cream and Everyman Jack aftershave on weekdays
    Proraso eucalyptus/menthol preshave, shaving cream and shaving cream and aftershave balm on weekends.

    I have a blade sampler that I am currently evaluating using a bracket method. It has 10 different blades, 5 each, so I can run a good blade tournament!

    Thanks to all for a great board!

    Welcome to the Den!
    You'll find no shortage of great people willing to help with advice and support.
    It looks like you've got a nice set up already and I like your blade bracket plan. I'll be curious to see who wins for you!
