Proraso ASL
Semogue 830 Brush
Thiers Issard 5/8 Razor
Musgo Real Soap and Cream
Sort of a Portuguese affair which delivered a fairly good shave. The cream was very rich and thick with lots of glide.From their stillness came their non-action...Doing-nothing was accompanied by the feeling of satisfaction, anxieties and troubles find no place

It is very nice. I use shorter, faster, flicking motions with it and it just deletes the stubble. I have pretty coarse beard growth on my chin and jawline and it handles it no problem. You do have to wipe the blade clean more often than say a standard 5/8 but it is not a big problem Originally Posted by ratbag
