Warm greetings from the UK.
My name is John and I'm hopelessly addicted to this multi faceted obsession called shaving. I'm desperately trying to keep my acquisitions at a sensible level . I think it is under control but time will tell.
A little bit about myself. I live in the South West area England and resided in the county of Somerset. I have been DE shaving for decades but still every day is different and a great learning curve. I prefer Boar brushes, Omega in particular. MWF bowl lathered. Tech type razors hit the correct note for me simple and robust . Blades range from Super Max through to Feathers.
It is exciting to witness the birth of a shaving forum and I'm looking forward to making new cyber acquaintances and trying to move forward by holding back.
Regards John

Good question John . I do have a small Simpson a Coates " Fitzwilliam " plus a New forest. But I think I have rather a Puritan ( in the shaving sense ) view on items which would be deemed as luxury. I like meat 'n potato no frill kit . This is not say I do not appreciate top notch quality because I do . Although having said that I do have a hankering for a large knot silver tip..:s
I know ,I know it never seems to end
