Welcome mate
So tell us more. What gear? Favourites?
.........Not too sure how you arrived at that conclusion but I am yet to try Arko or a Bakelite razor so you've been given some dodgy info there! I will have to order some Arko soon though......
..............Of the soaps that I own, I really enjoy Tabac, MWF, Irisch Moos......
....
I'm currently afflicted by SBAD and also RAD so I have a few brushes and razors in my collection at the moment and of those I think my favorites are the Duke 3 in Manchurian or Thater 49125/1 and for razors, I have pretty coarse stubble and like the Muhle R41 or Fatboy set around 5. Of the soaps that I own, I really enjoy Tabac, MWF, Irich Moos and a couple of Barrister & Mann tallow soaps. Aftershaves that I really like include Floid Vigoroso/Blue, Fine Platinum, Captains Choice North and Speick. I have a few other brushes, razors, soaps and aftershaves that I can offer my opinions on if anyone is considering purchasing them so just ask and I will give you my best description/comparison!
Nice stuff mate!
There is no shame in having shaving related ADs BTW - no shame at all!
Welcome to the enablers club - you do need some modern stainless steel razors
Yeah, that's a dig at me! I'm in Perth too and exclusively use a bakelite razor and like Arko. So the logic goes: Perth...bakelite razor....Arko. Outside of Perth they're not too bright here. My kind of soaps too. Are you from Perth?
I do own an ATT H2 with atlas handle and I do enjoy it, although I think I should have ordered the kronos handle. I also have my eye on a Wolfman razor but it may be a few months away with the wait and my budget at the moment. What stainless razors do you own and what are your opinions on them?
Ha, I can already see you blokes are going be a bad influence on me! Discovering wet shaving has turned a chore with poor results and ingrown hairs into something I look forward to and enjoy so I as long as my purchasing doesn't get too out of control then I don't see it as a problem. My purchases are mostly rewards to myself here and there anyway. No shame!

I provide a valuable service in ensuring that you can show my acquisitions to your significant other and say - 'see, I'm not as bad as him'. It is a free service
I have:
Wolfman SB-P WRH2
BBS-1
ATT R1 Kronos
Weber PH with Bulldog Handle
RRSS V1
Love them all - although the Wolf is my favourite at the moment! Just a heads up - I posted it already: both the Wolfman and the BBS will go substantially up in price from July.1 - but all pre-order before then will still get the original price. I you really want one, I would put my name on the list. It is going to be a 2-3 month wait anyway...
With the love they get here, it'll be a supply and demand issue.Any idea as to why the prices of the Wolfman/BBS razors are going up?
