Gentlemen, I am a wet-shaving afficianado. I currently use a Hoffritz slant, a late 40's Gillette Super Speed, a Merkur 23C, and a Gem Micromatic Clog Pruf. My goal is to begin using straight razors, but limited funding means finding and fixing an affordable razor. I currently have four projects in the works. A Geneva 11/16 bayonette point, a H. Boker 11/16 bayonette point, a Phoenix Sheffield 13/16 barber's notch, and a 6/8 Robeson Sure Edge. I will post pictures in the appropriate forum when they are done. I am also interested in brush making. I've pretty much given up on finding a vintage brush in the wild, so intend to try my hand at carving my own. Again I will post pictures when complete. Best regards, Andrew
