Thanked: 74I am from Edmonton and just recently decided to trade up from my Mach 3 to something a little more civilized. I have been trying to accumulate the nessecities of DE shaving for a little over 2 weeks now and think I have it mostly under control now.
Razors:
I've been lucky with the local antique mall. I got a '53 Gillette Tech, a '53 Gillette Adjustable (both DE shavers) and a Boker Edelweiss. I paid $25 for the Tech, $5 for the adjustable and $35 for the Boker.
Soaps/Cremes:
I have noticed that some Shoppers Drug Marts carry Proraso. Otherwise there are a couple of Crabtree and Evelyn's in Edmonton.
Brush:
I got the C&E Best Badger. It is $50 north of the border.
I haven't gotten anything for my straight yet (not even honed).
Momentum Grooming is in Vancouver. I was there last weekend and they were pretty helpful.
Any honemeisters in Western Canada?
