Oh yeah...make it shine Mike....think mirror polish, diamond shine....

Broke out the old Semogue Boar brush, figure I better get a few practice sessions in first...open my mind, expand my shaving horizon's, and try my darndest to learn to like a Boar brush....

Good luck Andrew, I've spent some money on boars just to give away or up on the shelf to look at, I just can't like them, just my preference, I know you can always change it so give it a whirl, but if I ever find one I,m going badger Tc

I like boar. I like badger.

I don't much care for horse.

The EverReady Boar (http://straightrazorpalace.com/shave...ml#post1591914)
and Maggard's Lilac yielded a very good lather.

Got the #3 to sparkle tonight.



And at the risk of rounding off any of the stamp, I held to this on the bottom

The reflection is a little deceiving. The stamping is still very tight and crisp.
Make sure you dry the bottom if you leave this standing knot up full time I think. Probably what caused the depth of decay under there, or maybe a custom stand to ensure it stays dry..
I've treated the entire handle to some Renaissance wax so the shine should hold up well for some time.
The odd touch up with mothers will ensure it holds its own for another generation.

It looks great!
