Hello from Melbourne

[Oldfart1945]

Hello,
James from Melbourne here. Nice to meet you all.
I've been wet shaving and collecting safety razors for most of my life.
My all time favourite razor is a Gillette Fatboy.
What is yours?

'collecting safety razors for most of my life' - now THAT sounds interesting - any pics? We love to see pics

Hey there @Oldfart1945 and welcome mate.

My favourite? I'm quite keen on military issued razors, and straight razors. Favourite straights in my rotation are a Bengal and Russian 'Extra'

Welcome to P&C @Oldfart1945 - great to have you here

My favourite razor is a LA Shaving Company/Wolfman BBS-1 in stainless steel - but only because @todras hasn't found me a Titanium version for cost price yet

Welcome ya @Oldfart1945!


Someone had to, right???
Look forward to hearing about your shave adventures...

Welcome @Oldfart1945!

Of course the most important question is what blades do you use?
Nacet and Gillette Silver Blue here.

Welcome @Oldfart1945 .

My favourite razor is currently the Muhle R41. Smooth and efficient with nice blade feel. 2nd favourite is probably the Rockwell 6S. Slightly more smooth and less efficient, but also less blade feel.

What sort of software are you using? and what are your favourites?

Working on it man, it will likely be slightly more than cost though but not by much

I do hope it comes at least with a matching stand

I do hope it comes at least with a matching stand

Oh for sure, and the logo from 'Ride the Lightning' on the base of the stand too!

That would be one sweet looking stand....

I often use Shark or medical Personna blades.
When I feel a little adventurous (which happens quite often), I use Feather.
