    BAUME.BE Shaving Cream
    Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements - Star Jelly, Aftershave & Cologne - Lavender Planet
    Darwin Drake Certified 2 band badger
    Maxfli Gold 100

    Fabulous 3 passer, this Maxfli has some of the loudest feedback. BAUME.BE one of my favorite shaving creams, quick to lather, super dense with excellent slick and long lasting face feel. Lavender Planet....reminding me that is was low 70s yesterday about 2pm, then by 5pm it's in the 20s (with a single digit 'feels like').

    Jim Slick Razor.
    I had bought this one with a big crack and made a shorty out of it.
    1 5/8" worth of shaving edge with orange acrylic scales.
    The brush I made/used is bigger than the razor. LOL

    Great looking brush from a maker I've not heard of before.

    Happy Shave.

    From their stillness came their non-action...Doing-nothing was accompanied by the feeling of satisfaction, anxieties and troubles find no place

    Thank you! It was an enablement purchase from another wet shaving enthusiast. Very nice quality for the price, one badger brush I'll always have.
