    I have a different perspective on this, having learned to use a brush from my dad using a bar of Ivory in my hand. Used a Gillette DE and blue blades. Got the "job" done.

    Fast forward 50+ years, I strop a vintage Sheffield blade on a nice Roo strop, lather with MDC and enjoy my shave. Gets the same job done, but my priorities are different now. I'm not doing it only to get my face smooth (but I do), but I savor it. I do the same with Arko, a nice brush and whatever razor I grab...maybe a Vintage Gillette with Polsilver blades that cost more than my razor from 50 years ago....and I get the job done...and savor making the choices and taking the time. Life is about the experience, not the "job". Do whatever you enjoy!

    That is what it's about.
