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

$19.94 on a F.A. Koch & Co. Faultless 6/8, Saturday written on Spine
$9.01 on a Pursley & Hitch B.S.Co. Saturday Night 9/16 made in Germany
$28.95 total with shipping included, This has been a good Month !

I bought a Boker King Cutter and a Bingham's Criterion for $60 in total.

My wife won't give me a hard time since I used my birthday as an excuse! This was my first experience with the straight shave. My dad used a safety razor, but can't find it. So I bought a W.R. Case & Sons "Real Red Point" on Ebay from an SRP guy $61. I got a "Dovo's Best Russian Leather Strop" for $76. I picked up a "KEEN KUTTER Razor Hone No 15 Extra Quality" Circa 1915 (in original box) $26. Probably another $20 in soap and a cheap brush. I'm in about $183 and shaving!

I'm sure this is just a start, and the end to my honesty about expenditures!

But what did I save?

I may be justifying, like my wife used to about shoe sales, but I get money back.

I'll spend money on what interests me. I've spent my share of cash on other projects, mostly bikes.

I love the relatively smaller dollars, and project size of a razor. Spending four hours on a razor is far Le$$ than spending four hours on a motor.

My glass is more than half full.

Doesn't matter what I'm doing, If I'm to fill out a spread sheet for what I 'spend'....then time for a new hobby.
