    • Brush: Brad Sears Arley 26mm Super Badger

    • Razor: Dovo Bismarck 6/8" Full Hollow Round Point

    • Lather: Noble Otter - Ace - Soap

    • Post Shave: Noble Otter - Ace - Aftershave

    • Post Shave: Thayers - Lemon - Toner

    • Talc: Yardley Classic

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


    This was my first time using Ace. Wonderful scent. Leather and tobacco is what I get but there’s a woody aspect to it as well. Perfect for this time of year. This one’s a keeper.

      I only do 2 pass shaves. Same for you, or was today an exception?

        Yes, I normally do 2-pass shaves. Because I’m a daily shaver, I can get away with my first pass as WTG-XTG and my second pass as XTG-ATG and get almost as close a shave as a more traditional 3-pass shave.

          My 2 pass consists of a WTG followed by a mostly XTG (with slightly ATG in a couple spots). But I mostly only shave every other day. I have pretty sensitive skin and it really doesn’t like any more than that.
