    Looks like you still need some jnats, a kanayama, a couple of iwasaki tamahagane in kamisori and western styles, and a morris and forndran makes every brush collection complete (although I do tend to prefer my shavemac d01 2 band lately)

    I've decided I'm not going to start buying stones for another 6 months or so yet. Moving to a new house and then I'll buy the stones and bench grinder and everything else for resto and scale work

    Where's the best place online to buy Morris and forndran? I've seen them on here and they're beautiful but no idea where to buy.

    They are like finding leprechauns at the end of the rainbow lol. They pop up on ebay from time to time. The maker is a recluse that doesn't respond to 99% of people who contact him.

    Collections are never complete. Even if you had a valet to shave you every morning, you would still find something else to add, har!

    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 would say a cabinet could be in order

    Maybe a modern custom razor... Or a Dirtybird Scuttle...
    Fact: Opinions are not the same as facts... Well, that's my opinion anyway
