I find that the Nomad works very well with a Tubby 2, I guess the equivalent of a Chubby 2.
Lots of hairs, continuously dipping the brush in the stream of water to work it up.
So far the only brush that got me a lather anywhere equivalent to Nuno's from the Nomad.

Sunday
Hot water prep
RAF Razors "The Bastard" file razor - TOBS lavender cream - generic silvertip badger brush - cold water splash - Proraso green tea & oat balm - Penhaligon's Eau de Verveine EdT

Shaggy's blade still holding up very well. I will consider muting the spike a bit though.
It bit me twice today without me noticing it. Only when I saw the small sanguine streams over my cheeks did I realise.
It's all good though. Keeps me sharp.

A new week ahead. A busy one. Have a good one gentlemen!

Razor – Muehle R89 w/ Soopa Iridiums
Brush – E-Shave Persian jar
Soap – MWF
AS – ALUM, & Mrysol Agua Balsamica

A quick clean DFS. I like the girth of the UFO Godzilla Red/Bronze handle, I may need one of the other styles….…Oooohhhh the Shave Sharks are swimming in my head again.

Nice Kukri Lisbon!
