    • Brush: Zenith 506B MB (27 mm × 51 mm Manchurian badger)
    • Razor: Thiers Issard 14 Médaille d’Or 1921 Exposition d’Algier Acier Spécial (7/8", extra hollow, square point, carbon steel)

        Thanks! And 🍻

        Blugère ++;

        I got a bunch of compliments on it from my wife, and I suspect she’ll use the frag herself

          You will probably like it more when not distracted by a pain in the back :)

    • Brush: Wolf Whiskers – “Gianmaria” w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
    • Razor: Blackland Era - Level 4 SB
    • Blade: Personna 74 (1)
    • Lather: Chicago Grooming Co. - Caoba - Soap
    • Post Shave: Aqua Velva - Musk - After Shave Cologne
    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth/Declaration Grooming - Cerberus - Liniment

    Not only do these blades last a long time, they also shave really well. At least according to the first shave…

    Continuing the tub kill with Caoba. What a great, easy, woody scent.

    The Era is one of my all time favorites, and I usually use the 3 plate. The 4 worked really well, too. Not as buttery smooth feeling as the 3, but a nice close shave.
