I am new to this form, but have wet shaving for many years. Originally started shaving with injector type razors and progressed through all the popular multi-blade, cartridges and currently settled on Merkur Vision DE. My first brush, my wife surprised me with a Silver tip Badger from Art of Shaving, I call it my Sunday brush. I have other brushes I use through out the week but prefer Silver Tip medium to soft. So far I haven't found a favorite shave cream, have eliminated some but there are so many good ones its hard to settle on one. I also rotate several bar shave soaps. Here to so many good ones. I have followed several suggestions and tips found from this form as well as others and hope my experiences or 2 cents worth may be helpful to others Bob815
