What would I do differently? Easy... Nothing! I've always wet shaved, but the cartridges were just a stepping stone to where I am now. My journey has had ups and downs, but I've learnt from everything. Love my straights and will never stop using them.

Do I have enough stuff? Definitely. I've got enough creams, brushes, shave balms etc to last me the next 50 years! But so what? You never know how good something is, whether it be a brush, cream, strop, stone, until you've had something of lesser quality to compare it to. We live and learn! I'll still buy more! Can't help myself. Never has it been truer... YMMV!!
