By the time you reach until August this year, you’re wife will be completely forgotten about your 12 months restriction 2021 sabbatical. Then you’ll be buying more razors, brushes and soaps again, you’ll say to your wife tough titties dear, because, you’ve completely forgotten about the sabbatical agreement. Sorry honey we need to reschedule our 12 months sabbatical agreement again for 2022.

The only thing that would sway me is a Wolfman once my name is called mid 2021 but even then I already own RAD killing razors so will happily hold off on that purchase for a future date. Plus unsure what I would prefer so it can wait.
I have 30+ soaps, 1,500+/- blades, 14 brushes, post shave & serum to last and many scuttles/bowls so no reason to add to an already large collection.
What I will be doing is supporting the Charity Auction so expect a few bids but sadly nothing excessive as I'm still recovering from the last one! :whistle:
 
- Gillette Super Adjustable
- Gillette Super Stainless 1972
- Vie-Longue Horse
- Williams Mug Soap
- Old Spice Knockoff from Family Dollar (Vintage bottle of Skin Bracer that I refilled)

You do like your "Old Spice Knockoff from Family Dollar "!
 
I'm still recovering from the last one! :whistle:
For another words, it’s, BULLSH :muted: T!

No matter how long you’re trying to recover yourself from your wet shaving diseases disorder or depression, whatever you see online, sooner or later, you can’t help yourself or save yourself from buying another tool or something you couldn’t even look away.

I had all of 2020 to stock up on all the gear I wanted and I always have other interests to invest in making my decision that much easier.
Plus I managed a Sabbatical in 2019 so no reason why I can't achieve it again this year! :p

@SpeedyPC , dropping the Apollo razor was an intentional act in order for @Razor Burn to break his sabbatical.

Geez @Razor Burn, it's only been 2 weeks, stay strong :p:LOL:

Don’t worry, @Razor Burn will crack sooner or later. We will be watching him throughout the whole year, you’re on watch duty from now on until the end of June for 6 months, and I’ll take over from July until new year eve.

Pre-shave: Warm shower
Brush: Omega 10065 boar
Soap: Squadron Sweetheart
Bowl: Fine Accroutrements with added 'agitators'
Razor: Smart-Helix Apollo Light (Aggr.)
Blade: Gillette Stainless(3)
Post shave: Pinaud Clubman Musk
Cologne: Armaf Club de Nuit
Took this brush away for a week or two of travels over the holiday period and started to really like it for such a cheap buy. Guess I didn't really break it in for long enough
in prior use. The Gillete blade and Apollo are a great combo; smooth and confidence inspiring. It was a different case yesterday when I also decapitated myself; the handle was tight but I must have clamped it down when the blade wasn't seated on the pins correctly and paid for my error with a nasty cut.
 
Pre-shave:- Shower
Brush:- Frank Shaving Pure Badger 23mm
Soap:- Stirling - Executive Man

This brush has been a real surprise for a 5$ 2nd. Was advertised as 20mm Pure Badger, nothing special, measures closer to 23mm and for some reason has provided superior lather every time.
The Lupo was so smooth I am tempted to get a 72-SS when readily available.

All 3 versions of the SS Lupo are now in stock. I ordered all 3 heads + 2 caps and 2 handles. Order should arrive soon.
