Well said!! I started SR shaving for many of the same reasons about 4 months ago. I will never go back to using multi-blade cartridges! I enjoy the process of SR shaving, researching vintage SRs and SRs manufactures. It is something I CAN do every day that I enjoy. It has become my brain gym activity that gets my day going in the right direction. I still have lots to learn but that is also the great part about this art/hobby you never stop learning.
