Posted: 10/21/2011 9:59:45 PM THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT There have been several Wet Shaving threads and quite a lot of interest on here. Whenever there is one, someone usually states that we should have a subforum due to the growing interest. If there was one I would assume we would have it filled with tutorials, links to deals and products we like, picture threads of our shaving dens and possibly even a blade exchange. I was just wondering if we could get one. That is all.

I know that's how I got started with wetshaving. If these threads were confined to a subforum fewer people might see the light.

So I got seriously misled about saving money.

Oh god, please tell me there isn't a "the chart" situation for razors You really don't have to go all crazy buying everything under the sun. You really could get in for just under $40. If you really like it though, chances are that you will have fun trying different stuff. That can get expensive, but it doesn't have to be.

The problem with the dedicated shaving forums that aren't arfcom is that they aren't arfcom. Like Frank Lloyd Wright touring a block of soviet apartment buildings, I see the utility for those forums, but I fail to see any connection to the art we produce.

You can find a Lord Tech knock off for under $10, a cheap boar brush for around $5, a cake of VDH or Conk for under $4 and by stealing a cup or bowl from the kitchen you're good to go. You will get a good clean shave with some effort and good technique. Of course then the addiction kicks in and you have a dozen razors and brushes, two dozen different brands of blades (two of which you hate and will never use again even though you bought 100 of each since they were a good deal) 50 soaps and creams which cost you $500 to accumulate. Of course you also own 87 firearms, $5000 dollars in Snap-on tools, 600 cigars, 25 bottles of unopened scotch, 18 bottles of unopened cognac and a six pack of PBR.
