Good tip! I'll give it a shot. I do like the brush, and this hair combo, and I think you may be right about the moisture to soap ratio. I'll use this same brush soap combo next week and see if I can work out the kinks.

And, thanks for compliment! I need to try a few more Sheffield steel razors to make sure my infatuation with them is legit, but I find that I really like the heft and feel of most of the Sheffield blades I've held.
