Octopus what scent would you like to try...

Awakenings, Spellbound woods, Lavender vanilla, Barbershoppe

I agree...its nice using the glycerin soaps to learn to lather before moving to hard soaps...

again Octopus...that MB sample will be in the mail in the next day or so.

that should work fine and if you decided you want something better try out the cheap tweezerman i linked above

Octopus

Do you have a brush already? If not you can pick one up at walgreens or walmart ... a cheap boar brush to start off with ... you will need one with the shave soap.

Or you can get this...

canvas, linen, cloth component, these are all basically different words for the same thing. A fabric strop on the back of the leather that you use first...most guys do like 20 to 30 laps and then go...

This should probably be in the Newbie section...

Get your strop first like was said above...dont worry about the hones yet ... you wont need that for a while...a good strop will hold your razor...
