Hello all!
I've been lurking for a couple days now (ok so it was more like a month) and I finally decided to come out and say "hi!"
First and foremost you guys all sound like pretty awesome dudes and I'm glad you guys are here doing what you do thanks and I'm glad I can be part.
I'm new to DE shaving and like all the other Newbs I have a question.
What are the number 1, 2, 3, 4 on the blades for? I can't seem to find out anywhere!
Anyway, my gear is pretty mellow (on the cheap)
Treet Starliner TTO DE (anyone use this before?)
Omega Proraso Clone Soap
Derby Extras (although I picked up a pretty awesome sampler from here)
Omega Syntex brush 90081
Again, thanks for being here and I'll talk to you all soon!
