Greetings to all! As the title says, I'm a longtime DE wet shaver. I learned on a hand-me-down OC DE razor. Probably a Gillette of some variety. The experience have made OC razors a NO-GO with me.
I currently have a RazoRock Game Changer 84-P SB and a RR Lupo .95 SB. Both are made from premium 316L stainless steel and are CNC machined to tight tolerances. I also have a few handles. Specifically, RR "Barber Pole", RR "Thin-Bar" and RR Ti "HALO". So far, my favorites are the "Thin-Bar" and the Ti "HALO". Although, I really like the "Barber Pole", too. As you can see, I'm kind of a RazoRock fan.
I've used numerous blades over the years. My current favorite are Astra SP. I purchase 100ct and use each blade 5 times. I think I get good performance (DFS, CCS, BBS) at an affordable price.
I also like Proraso "Green" products. I love the feel and smell of Menthol and Eucalyptus. Currently, my Den includes Proraso Green Pre-Shave, Shave Cream and Aftershave.
I like to use 'Shaving Scuttles' and have two. My brush is a Parker BCPB brush I've had for 13, or more years. An exact replacement is available in the closet, when needed.
I'm not a 'collector'. I don't have any vintage razors, at least none that survived. I prefer modern, stainless steel CNC machined razors.
Thanks for letting me join, I'll try not to annoy anyone.
