G'day Fellas

Hello everyone!



I'm a newbie from Oz who has just recently fallen into the rabbit hole after picking up several vintage razors and restoring them. My favourite of the 3 has to be the Schick Krona, purely for the mechanical handle which opens and allows you to access the blade.

Anyway, the shaving A.D.D got me there, sorry.





So far...

I've purchased a tester pack of blades, so far the Personnas seem to be my favourite.



I've also purchased an L'occitane Plisson synthetic (rebranded) brush and am currently using the Proraso White sensitive soap/cream/croap? No allergies or sensitive skin but I thought it's probably going to be safe than sorry.



I was just enquiring to see what soaps anyone has encountered over here, from Pureman, Mensbiz (thinking of popping in to say hello and to sniff some products in Melbourne) or similar sites and what are your favourites soaps?

eg. TOBS, Col. Conk, D.R. Harris, Geo F. Trumper, Truefitt & Hill, Mitchells Wool Fat...the list goes on.



Also, alum blocks and after-shaves. Needed? Favourites?
