I think of myself as a minimalist also. Although, not as mini as before I found this joint!
For years I used:
1 razor - EJ DE87
1 soap - Williams
1 brush - VDH boar
1 blade brand - Wilkinson Sword (Wal-Mart)
1 Bowl - VDH (starter set)
1 After Shave - Mennen Skin Bracer
Now (after seeing and joining the B&B)
1 razor - RazoRock Jaws OC (love the EJ, but I'm lovin' the closer shaves with Jaws. B&B induced
1 soap - Williams......but I mix in either Speick or Real Shaving Co. cream) B&B induced
2 brushes - VDH boar + Semogue 620 boar....alternate every other day bought the 620 prior to finding the B&B
2 blade brands - Personna reds & Astra SPs.......Purchased 100 of each B&B induced due to Wal-Mart not carrying WS blades
1 bowl - VDH (starter set)
3 After Shaves - Pinaud Clubman, Pinaud Virgin Island Bay Rum & Thayers Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera. B&B induced
Only real difference now is that I check out thrift and antique stores looking for shave related stuff. Nice hobby.
