I like knives in general, and I've read about the old wet shaving method. I'm definitely interested in getting started on shaving in this way. Hope this helps someone else :)

yeah I don't know if I will make the jump yet, I might just do what you're doing :)

I will be buying a badger hair brush tomorrow from Crabtree and Evelyn and some soap & cream.

If this is as enjoyable as it seems, I may be buying a more expensive brush in Germany or Italy when I go. For most obvs, a brush thread is coming.
