After diving into this thread and being at work i was ansy to get home. Im looking at a 65 SuperSpeed on ebay right now up to .99 cents(whooo)

Ive got a brush cream and blades on the way here from westcoast shaving, i think im about to take over the bathroom or at least annex some from my wife.

Question i have is using a soap puck i see alot of yall have it in a cup and wanted to know do you lather in the cup or use hot water to pick up some and then use another vessel.

AHHH im really excited to get all my supplies here and start shaving.

Another convert.

But that was born of me being in the military and either in the field deployed or at work early and no time to get ready needing to shave everyday. Got out and the trend just continued becuase thats what I was used to. Necks always been kind of rough but im sure this will help immensely

Yup...this part sucks. Wet shaving the majority of the time but having to subject myself to the "field shave" makes me appreciate the first wet shave after a shower even more.

Being an arty guy and having access to a coffee pot, I have definitely run water through the pot to heat it up before a shave.

Another 100 pack of Shark Super Chromes arrived in the mail today. First pack lasted me about two years. Spending $15 on razor blades every two years - winning!

I bought 50 of the same last summer. Sharks are great.

Im new to the discussion, but a 3 year veteran DE shaver.

Merkur 38c
Simpson Colonel X2L brush in Best.
L'Occitane Cade soap is my go-to.

Cut my nose this morning shaving under it. Didn't even notice it until I was making coffee and thought I had a runny nose. Damn.

I hate that. I almost always cut my lip working in that area, it annoys me.
