Alright so after some serious thought and number crunching I am pretty sure I'm going to go with these things:
Amazon.com: Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood Shaving Cream Jar: USA VITAMINS
Amazon.com: Tweezerman Men's Shaving Brush: Health & Personal Care
The English Shaving Company - Edwin Jagger shaving accessories, shaving creams and aftershaves

The only thing I'm not sure where to get or find is a sampler razor blade pack. I want to try out a few different types to see what fits my face and beard.

What do you guys think of these choices?
