This list of razors and soaps and scents and blades and ..... Yikes! It is like some kind of dirty razor magazine!! I am lovin reading about everybody's stuff and the combos. Awesome!!I feel like I am getting boring and staid already. I pretty much always use a standard G-bar with a metal handle. Likely a 1907. I grab the ginormous black plastic omega boar brush and a hard soap - I struggle between sandalwood Trumpers or sandalwood Evelyn Crabby. Ooooooh. The tension!  I rarely put anything at all else because my skin doesn't care for products and aftershaves and such - I get kinda sweaty and turn red.  So, same old same old
G-Bar, TP3x, omega boar, hard sandalwood soap, water But I am GROOVIN reading what others use!!! I am gonna have to think outta the box. Tomorrow baby!!! Maybe something a little different. |

Gem Heavy Flat Top
Gem Blue Star

Surrey brush
Started out using the Feather blade but I didn't like the way it fit in the HFT so I put in a Blue Star.
