Hi all, I’m Boris and I switched to DE shaving from carts about four months ago. I’ll never go back. I find that I actually enjoy shaving now — and it’s become a mini-hobby. My main razor is a Muhle R89 Twist but I also have a 1956 Gillette SS Red Tip as my travel/occasional razor. And, I have a new acquisition on the way — a 1930 Gillette NEW Deluxe Big Boy. I’m really anxious to try that one out! Right now, I’m using Nacet blades, Proraso Red soap, a synthetic brush, my own homemade pre-shave oil, and Stirling Vetiver aftershave. Looking forward to reading about everyone’s experiences and to exchanging ideas.
I forgot to add, I also have a vintage Weck Sextoblade that I use to trim and line up my sideburns. That thing is sharp!
