I've been using a mug, soap and brush for awhile off and on for a bit. Though I haven't experimented much even on that front. But I was wanting to dive into the world of DE razors. Saw these for cheap and have been enjoying them for about a month or so now. As for blades, I picked up some cheap blades (not even sure of the name) to get started. I've since ordered some Astra blades and also just today traded a tuck of those for some feathers from a coworker. Ready to give those a try as well. Any suggestions on soaps and creams? Trying to keep this a fairly cheap venture. (if possible)

Here are 2 awesome ones and they happen to be on sale this week. AMICI & Proraso Red

Excellent! Thanks for the links.

You're welcome, i highly recommend the Amici, it's beautifully scented, very slick and the lather is creamy and thick.

I can never find anything in the wild. very nice slim and super Speed you have there

Amici is great and can't be beat for the price, might as well throw in a couple sticks of Arko too, if you place an order . I don't know what enablers they are talking about....

Hope you didn't catch any fleas from that market..welcome aboard..

Nice pair of vintage gillette razors. Did you look up the date codes?

I couldn't recommend a better pair to start your journey.

Just got done with my flea bath treatments this morning. Lol.

LOL....You found the right group to ask...but be careful what you wish for.

Sorry, if it makes you feel any better, I haven't found any more since.

Soaps and creams - our own Queen of Blades, aka JoAnna makes some of the best artisan soaps and creams you're gonna find.

I have, but don't recall what they were now. Once I make it home tonight, I'll check again and post it. If I remember right, they're both the first year of each of their models. (don't quote me on that though)

Welcome to TSD! Prepare to learn stuff pertaining to shaving, and have fun doing so(learning that is).

as I said a few days ago-I'm getting interested in the notion of "shaving sticks".
