    Is there anything you need to have a complete set of tools to shave ? Other than that, it is just what catches your fancy and what you want. Nothing wrong with liking a particular razor, brush or strop. Have you got any old Sheffield wedges ? Just whatever you take a liking to and decide you want AFAIC. Looking at the photos you've posted I'd say you've got a real nice assortment of shaving gear already.

    I have a Sheffield wedge that my local guy who is kind of mentoring me is putting new scales on right now. I'm super excited to get it into the rotation!

    I would say a cabinet could be in order

    Maybe a modern custom razor... Or a Dirtybird Scuttle...

    You do not appear to need any more soap or AS balm. I don't see a bottle of Knize Ten on your counter. Or a bottle of Azzaro pour Homme. Those would complete your collection...

    I'm still looking at custom razors and trying to decide who and what. I want a French point so I think that will be the custom

    I have a couple of customs, one from Koraat and one from Nate's Straights. They both offer French points I believe, although I didn't go for that with mine. They just seem too pointy, the last thing I need is more sharp edges and points next to my face

    The Dirtybird scuttles are good solid bits of kits too, worth looking into. She actually has a video on YouTube making one, once you have watched that you will "need" one...

    No need to add stuff, you better get rid of some, send it to me for safe disposal.
