    Borrowing the thread idea from @GDCarrington and carrying it forward to 2016.

    So, what shaving products/activities, up to five of them, have you not tried yet - but want to in 2016?

    My list would be;

    1) The Single Edge razor by @SUPPLYProvision Co when it is released

    2) To restore a vintage brush

    3) Sell at least 30 razors

    4) Cobra Classic razor

    5) TBD....

    1) Maybe try the Personna injector blades. Maybe...the Schicks a Den friend sent are excellent.

    2) Stop sniffing glue.

    3) Try to unload all my old carbon injector blades.

    youngunn Where's my TSD aftershave balm???

    My list for this year includes some higher end items... Go big or go home right? Lol But really I'm looking for quality over quantity.

    1. Finish restoring my brushes
    2. Finish saving up for my Toggle and buy it from the antique store where it's on hold
    3. Purchase MdC, ABC, C&S no. 88 and PannaCrema Nuavia. (And MWF)
    4. Dial in my razor/blade combos
    5. Continue converting others to the gospel of wetshaving... Counting "assists" I'm up to 8 people now.

    won't you rather see it regularly in the sotd than stowed away in obscurity?
    I'd make it worth your while, and you'd get to use it awhile before sending it home.
    lol(mods, I'm just pulling his chain,no real offers goinz onz)

    wmbjr Duck, duck, cooked goose!

    1. Find a C1 Schick repeater for a good price,

    2. Use the razors I own but haven't used ( a tech and a couple injectors),

    3. Get PIFed 30 razors because someone decided it was easier than trying to sell them all,

    4. Try several popular soaps including MWF, Razorock, Route 66 and others

    5. Try several new aftershaves including myrsol, and F&C,

    6. If I get adventurous maybe pick up a shavette or even a straight by the end of the year,

    7. Most importantly, get married and get my wife to be to use her lady Gillette and lady Schick razors I bought her.
