Cream was Truefitt & Hill 1805-a true classic. Brush-a re knotted "Cling-Fast" antique (Finest Badger).
Verdict? Simply perfect. No issues at all. Blade was smooth and efficient. Very reminiscent of a coticule edge as opposed to a, say, J-Nat.
I'm thinking you guys are going to REALLY like this razor..
