Not the end of the world, but you can see it from here!

Old dude, wed to Mach3 for many, many years. Shave-raised on Gillette butterfly DE then Schick injector SE.

Looking to "enliven" a portion of my daily life, shaving a tough beard, with safety razors. Toe-in-the-water the last few days with Qshave adjustable DE (chin still healing from slices) and ordered a One blade CORE. Maybe next experiment is Supply Co. Adjustable SE Pro.

Hoping that this random walk through the interesting world of safety razors can be helped along by this wonderful forum and the generous folks who contribute.  Also hope to become a contributor as I learn. Any suggestions for an elderly newbie?

Thank you!

Hello and welcome to the forum from another elder Northwesterner. My only suggestion now would be to just experience and enjoy each day's unique shave and gear, without trying to find perfection or even just 'the best.' Explore the varieties available. As with many things, it's the journey rather than the destination.
