Burham 1909 razor/Arko in a Mug/New Turkish Horsehair #6/Osage rub

A simple but very effective shave. BBS, what more could one want.

New turkish #6: soaked in vinegar, cleaned in dish soap and test lathered in Arko, all today. So for a first use I can say it was more scrubby than my well broken in one, But I feel it's still pretty soft even though it's not broken in. I must have alligator skin as I don't think these feel stiff and scratchy at all when new. But I'm not a super soft fluffy brush kind of guy. This brush is still a little funky and sad to say the Arko didn't cover much of it up. As for the Burham, Man does this little s/e work wonders on me. BBS in 3 gentle passes, but I did a 4th, just because it felt sooooo gooood. Finished with Osage Rub.
