Thread: How much have you spent on shaving this month? and what did you purchase?

Wow! I amazed at the guys that spent nothing. Wether it be on purpose or dont have the money. I wish i could do that. I have enough razor's for a few lifetimes.

About $1200 so far. I've bought a Livi 7/8 (off here), a Shapton 30k and 2k, a JNAT, a Plisson travel brush and about 10-12 misc straights off ebay.

Why? Why would you bring up so painful a topic?

Why don't you just as an alcoholic how much he had to drink for God's sakes?


I guess about $400 if you include the buffing station I built.

I spent exactly $1.00 + 6% sales tax on a white ceramic shaving mug . It was on the shelf next to the William's Mug shaving soap . I didn't really need it but I thought it looked pretty cool , and the price was right .

$300.

A Frank Shaving Silvertip brush, and a 7/8 Wacker.

I was hoping to lay low for a while, but the problem I encountered is that I really like how the Wacker shaves. Now I NEED another (and that's what I'm telling SWMBO too.....I NEED another Wacker....)

Zero.... I've been laying in the cut lately looking for the "one" that just jumps right out at me. Looking for something very distinct and OLD. Although I have seen quite a few vintage razors on eBay that sold for a steal in the past few weeks, nice ones that I would not have normally objected to having duplicates of. I'll hold out for the big payday. I can feel it comingl

Enough...learning new grinds & sizes...what I thought was going to be one or two razors to last me forever is now 5. And add another strop. And another brush. And some more Thayer's. And a shaving set for my friend's b-day...you get the picture.

I bought my second Red Imp from Holliforpirating and 2 tubs of Domenico Carceni Cream. I split one tub with a member though.

I don't know how you guys do it...razors are the wallet-burners for me. It's all the "experiments" with different stones and strops and polishing media.

...and for the time being (knock-on-wood)...I'm perfectly content with my $5 brush and Wal-Mart soap. lol


I usually spend it spurts. I'll go a couple months without buying anything and then I'll have a...a...well...I don't wanna talk it.

$0 for me the last 2 months. Hmmm, maybe this whole SR self-sufficiency is finally working out.... for now
