    • Brush: Zenith B40 28mm Boar

    • Razor: Kikuboshi R. Saito 6/8" Extra Hollow

    • Lather: TTFFC - The Lake - Soap

    • Toner: Thayers - Rose - Toner

    • Aftershave: Combe Inc. - Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue - Aftershave

    2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.


    New razor, new soap, and new brush.

    This Kikuboshi R. Saito arrived in August. I have been looking for one of these in extra hollow for quite a while. The smiling edge is unbelieveably good to shave with. It was quite natural to find which part of the blade to use for different parts of the face. It is a light razor but handles very well.

    I received The Lake at the Maggard Meetup earlier this year and it is my first time using it. The TTFFC soap base is very nice, and the scent is a very pleasing aquatic. Goes well with Aqua Velva :)

    I ordered the B40 during August because I was envying all of the raw hoggers. I plan to raw hog this brush as much as possible this month.
