    Great Sunday shave.

    Ordered an Omega brush the other day, and I received it last night.

    Omega are known for their boar knots, so I chose a synthetic that looks like boar.

    The handle was a bit smaller than I expected. But the shape was spectacular, and the fingers fall into place perfectly.

    I used it this morning for the first time, and I’m super pleased with it. Lathers spectacularly.

    It reminds me of a stiffer boar knot, but paints incredibly, like a synthetic.

    The wood handle on the brush is “purdy,” so I paired it with my Ralf Aust…which also has “purdy” dark wood scales.

    Super comfortable to hold brush, incredible lather with an incredible soap, crazy sharp and smooth shave, and a superb scent.

    I cannot expect more.

    Crushing Sunday.

    Straight: Ralf Aust
    DE: Carbon Shaving Cx-316L (head shave)
    Lather: A&E “Peach & Cognac”
    Balm: Soap Commander “Integrity” (unscented)
    Splash: A&E “Peach & Cognac”
    Brush: Omega (synthetic)
    Bowl: Captains Choice (large)
