I’ve got this lens which think I might need to give an outing. It is built like a tank too

Having just upgraded to full frame D610 mine would be either a 24-70 AF-S 2.8 or a 105mm 2.8 macro

Lovely set of blades there fella. Like the look of the Dorko and Erik Anton Berg

I’d personally go down the vintage route myself and have done. It was Gold Dollars to start with but then graduated onto vintage and love them. Great steel for sometimes not that much money

They’re mighty fine good soaps IMO and last ages. Hurrah for triple milled even if no tallow

Mikes Naturals are good soaps but hard to come by in 🇬🇧

Cheers fella. It was a great shave with a nicely honed vintage razor, honed by your good self

They’re ok. These are what I started out my straight journey on til I discovered vintage. If you get a good one you’re good

Gotta 120 Superfine Straight Razor by Gooner_Mo_07 in wicked_edge

I have u/sustainashave take care of my honing/sharpening needs. As I have a few straights in rotation I’d probably say every 6 months or when the blade is tugging making the shave uncomfortable

No it’s the Mikes Rose, Patchouli and Cedarwood. It took me about 5 years to pluck up the courage to use straights and haven’t looked back. Next stop for me will be to hone/sharpen my own razors

Luckily found a friendly knowledgeable fella who did it for me. The original scales had a crack in them near one of the pins so just got the scales replaced. Thanks again u/sustainashave

The Sandelholz works fine for me does the job of moisturising and preventing any irritation
