Just wanted to say hello! I heard this forum and DFS were better with fine folks so here I am. I am a passionate wet shaver who has been in the hobby for about 3 years and the bug has bitten me bad. Absolutely love this hobby and looking forward to talking "shop" with everyone. Happy Shaving!!
Welcome to TSD @discerningbev! Glad you found us & brought your experience with you. You said you've been bitten by the bug? Please post photos of your gear! Everyone likes seeing stacks of soap tubs, racks of razors, assorted AS's, and a bevvy of brushes. If you have a larger collection that us, we can point at the pictures and say,"See Honey? I hardly have any stuff. This Guy has way more!" Do you have any particular favorites?
Welcome to TSD! Hope you enjoy your stay here as much as I do. I especially like the folks & the fun we have talking shop. I would love to hear what gear you have & what type of gear bug has bitten you. I'm new to the RAD bug & only have around 15 - 20 razors, most being vintage Gillettes. Lately, I've been enjoying my British Fat Handle Tech & Aristocrat Junior. I'm afraid the brush bug might be trying to get into my home right now!
Welcome aboard! Glad to have another amongst us. My wife and I honeymooned in Myrtle Beach. We both love the place. Hope y'all fared ok during the bad storms. Are you just a DE guy, or do you like SE also?
Yes my favorite soap is Talbot by a wide margin, favorite brush is Declaration B5 or B6 by a wide margin, favorite razor is Paradigm Ti 2 or RAW razor or Blackland Sabre GEM razor, favorite aftershaves are Stirling, Floid Vigoroso, Maol Grooming, The Holy Black and Fine.
