    Hi Everyone

    Bearded wet shaver from Port Stephens Australia.

    I have a reasonable beginnings of a collection of Gillette vintage razors:
    Fatboy E3
    Fatboy G1
    Slim Adjustable K1
    Super Speed C1
    British 58
    British Flare Tip Rocket
    British Parat
    British Tech Ball End

    In my honest opinion they all shave better than modern razors, my current favourite is the 58

    Also waiting on a Fatboy F2 to arrive.

    Have used a lot of different blades and have settled on Wilkinson Sword German blades as the ones that suit me best.

    Brushes currently are:
    Beard & Blade Chubby Progress Vulfix Silvertip
    AP Shave Blue Lagoon SilkSmoke
    Yaqi Chubby

    I’m currently using Proraso Wood & Spice Shaving Cream, the next in line to try is Alexander Simpson Bay Rum Ultra-Glide Shaving Cream.

    Thanks for accepting me in to The Shave Den and I look forward to being part of the group.

    I like the name and avatar. I'm a fan of the old west, myself.

    Welcome @wiiiildbill I really enjoy the vintage Gillette adjustables as well though sometime you need to try a vintage merkur progress.
