That is my goal...to grab, dip and go!!  I still have a ways to go.  Even though I'm pushing 60, my wet shaving experience is only a year.  I have learned a lot and come to realize how much I enjoy the simplistic shaves.  When I started I fell right down the rabbit hole.  Brushes, razors, and soaps, etc. were a weekly purchase.  Then I started watching Mr. Fuzzy's Neighborhood, aka Shaving with Fuzzy, and found out just how great shaving really is.  I pif'ed or sold everything except for a Gillette Fatboy, which I rarely use. And started purchasing vintage SE razors.  My brushes are boar and badger.  I found out as well, how much I enjoy the smaller mm size.  What model number Omega Badger do you use?  I have Omega boars but no badger.
