    Actually, I think TexasRanger may be saying I'm being sarcastic, and with the hardware displayed in the DP, I'm inclined to agree...with WHATEVER he says..

    I was just being funny, I LOVE straight razor shaving, and I haven't actually spent that much money. As far as bang for the buck goes, SR shaving beats everything hands down, it's a complete hobby. I don't think anyone would say shaving with a Bic is a hobby, even if the thing's got FIFTY blades.

    I also know it's a poor comparison, but it's a comparison of what I USED to use (though I did also have a 'supermarket' brush, so what was originally alluded was a lie) and what I use now. Got us talking, didn't it?

    Don't forget to add in your health insurance which doubled when they find out you are shaving with a SR.

    No, yeah, no; you're right. I did. 'A minimalistic sort of fellow' I think I said. And now look what you lot have turned me in to. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

    Yeah, I know my collection above is very modest in comparison to the results of the sickness that some suffer from :-)

    yeah, we are 2.5 years later now, Carl, Would you update your starting post with a current picture to see how much money you've saved be switching to SR's ?
