I did the whole routine several years back with the Dovo/strop set form SRD, etc...
Got as far as successfully shaving my cheeks and part of my neck, finishing with a M3...
I gave up for the time: moving, career change, getting married - now I’ve got time to conquer this dragon.
I have no gear except for a nice brush - does SRD still have starter sets?
What about this modular paddle?
I am a minimalist - would love input on gearing up with a solid-no-frills razor, strop, and minimally perfumed soap...
I respect everybody out there with these vast collections of different lotions and soaps, but I prefer it simple...

Thanks
