Hello Just a quick introduction I generally wear a beard, but the current virus stuff has made wearing a mask mandatory for work (Hospital maintenance) when I do shave ,I have always used a safety razor. I have about a dozen vintage razors mostly Gillettes bought at yard sales and thrift stores. At the moment I am using a Gillette tech razor 1962 date code ,a Gem micromatic bullet end, a G series Schick injector. And I broke down and bought my first ever new safety razor a Merkur 1904. I had in my stash the razors mentioned proraso old US made palmolive and Arko soap I only found an old Burma shave boar brush . 3 others are missing in action . So I have bought a Yaqi badger brush the merkur razor and a tub of AOS sandalwood cream. I have discovered Gem and Schick injector blades are now harder to find
