Welcome to the club zhivago. As a new member to it, I can confirm it's been nothing but a joy since starting :).

prettttttyyyyyyyyyy sure I'm going to settle on Feather blades. Have managed a few days without cuts, and really appreciate the way they cut. Considering it's usually a few days between shaves, the extra-sharpness is really beneficial.

Wet shaving is so much better… Enjoy!  I use the same razor and Taylor's wooden shaving bowl with sandalwood soap.

I would just add a nice aftershave if you don't have one already.  I like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Jack-Black-Post-Shave-Cooling/dp/B000J559HU

Astra and Feather are still battling it out. Still damn loving the shaves tho :).

Not a fan of Taylor's Avo shaving soap, really enjoying the Jack Black soap, and Proraso Menthol god  :-*.

I have a big box of 7AMs from before Gilette acquired them, great blades.  Seem to last forever before needing replacement, I can't imagine when I'll run out but it will be years.

Double backing this. Taylor's is quite a let down after JB and Methol anything. The Taylor's after-shave balm scent has annoyed me (that's my fault), but has worked quite well. Trying some Geo F Lime out as it seems to get a good review :).

I'm glad to see this thread has shifted from makeup on the first page to shaving on the last page 

Switched to a safety razor almost two months ago.

Wow best thing ever.

Feather blades and ToOBS Grapefruit makes me almost enjoy shaving in the morning.

Yeah I do the inverse: Taylor's soap, which makes an awesome lather that whips up quickly (I am always in a hurry shaving), and JB for my aftershave, which makes my skin feel like it did in my early 20s and carries no scent.  I don't like my aftershave to smell.  If I want to smell a certain way, I'll use cologne (Terre d'Hermes, the only one that I like).  Can't remember the last time I nicked myself, and I have a troublesome mole on my lip and a troublesome Adam's apple.  Disposable razors were an intermittent problem for me, but luckily my stiptich pencil gets no use now.  YMMV!
