Ill be at yall's level ones I pay off my school loans!!

The only thing I have one of is the brush, which is a Thater Finest. Compiling any other list would take too much time on my part.

I figured.. yall are packed full of shaving stuff..gahhh i wish i had the time and money!!

all or most of my gear is being moved to a new place. SWMBO is trying to see what all there is... I put some shelves up in the shave cave yesterday for soaps, brushes, creams and smell good and somehow ran out of room. DAMM!!!! still trying to figure out where I will store the razors. The DE's and blades took over a drawer in the bathroom. It's becoming difficult to hide stuff....
On a lighter note Elton, I will be closer to you for honing...

You don't need time and money. One or the other will do. You see a lot of deals in... heck I've only been at it for about three and a half years.

Razors:

5/8 Bengall in bloodwood scales, semi-French point
6/8 Geo. Wostenholm & Sons for L. Herder, black plastic, spike
5/8 Geneva w/ etch of a cowboy roping a steer, black plastic, round point
6/8 Wostenholm IXL in original black horn scales w/ gold-embossed "The Real IXL Razor," spike
5/8 Anchor Brand for Geo. Kreutzberg in yellow/brown/black mottled celluloid, spike
5/8 Chip A Way in mottled red/brown/green plastic, spike
6/8 Sprock in ivory scales, French point
6/8 Dovo Special in imitation tortoiseshell, round point
6/8 Wostenholm wedge or near-wedge with (possibly) Masonic etching, blond horn scales, spike (not in rotation--needs to be restored)

Strops:
3" red Latigo w/ synthetic webbing from SRD
2.75" leather and linen strop that was my GGF's--seems to be in decent shape, need to clean it up and test it out!

Brushes: 2 Edwin Jagger's, one pure badger, one best badger. The pure badger is smaller and has a cylindrical travel case. I have no idea what sizes they are, though.

Soaps: Working my way through several cakes of C&E Sienna and Sandalwood, which was all I could find for years until I found out about SRP . . . what can I say, my Scottish tight-wad gene kicks in every time I think about just ignoring them and buying other shaving soaps.

After-shave balm: C&E Sienna. SWMBO loves how it smells. 'Nuff said.
