I'm interested to see this shave setup as I've been waffling on whether to buy the ATT razor as well as the handle, as well as the WSP brush (but in HWM). Do you have any pics? If so, post em!

Hello Gents. Here's what I did with my face today:

I shaved with a Wade & Butcher 9/8, The Celebrated, For Barber's Use, with RazoRock's La Famiglia, Don Marco soap, and an AOS Fine Badger Brush, and finished with Pinaud Clubman. All good stuff. Back to work (from home today), cranking out pleadings, letters, and the like. Have a blessed Thursday!

Razor: Honor by Genco

Wonderful razor, one of the under rated blades out there, I think. If you like thin and delicate German hollow grinds, this shaves close to my Dubl Ducks...

Brush: Shavemac 24mm D01 Silvertip
Razor: Edwin Jagger head w/Weber Bulldog handle

Of course the original scales suck, but it's the steel that counts! :-)

got a new after shave today !! uuuggghhh i hated it lol, washed my face 2 times cause i was pressed to get out of the house so no time for a shower .... still couldnt get the smell off ssssoooo what to do what to do ???? AAHHH ill shave and cover it up with a fresh scent ...

pre= nothing
soap= SRD vanilla bourbon
brush= Simposons Wee-Scott
razor= Gillette Flare Tip (Wilkinson blade)
post shave = nothing
result = it sucked at first , but only cause i started my shave without a blade in the razor ..lol... ooopppsss, but then it was a fast but effective 1 pass WTG & 1 pass ATG (just in neck line ) i must say that the SRD soap lathered very well and QUICK !! but i will also add that i was kinda iffy of the scent as it turned to lather , it kinda went from (my opinion) a vanilla pipe tobacco smell to a heavy almost coffee scent and while shaving i wasnt to sure if i was gonna like the scent ... but after the shave i enjoyed the scent very much !! id also like to add i dont think ive shaved this much in a week in my life ..lol
