The Maggards starter kit on the side bar would be a good bet . Go with the V 3 head on it and happy days where as it pertains to your razor . As to your blade question , it ' s a case of your mileage may vary , so a sampler will be your best bet . As to brushes , i use a boar and am quite happy with it , i am sure others could offer you a better slice of insight though . The shaving soap is all about you man , find a scent profile that makes you smile from ear to ear and go with it . Maggards does also offer sample sizes as well , which i would recommend to you . From there just buy a styptic pencil and you are set . <| sep |> Seriously , when information on a website is reported as truth on main stream media , and you can guarantee it ' s been used in court cases , well my friend were onto a whole new level of crimes .
