    Yeah, I know I said I'd be giving my skin a rest, but... but... just one more play with the new toys... it's not much to ask for, is it?

    What number did you end up with?

    Strop - Jemico
    Prep - Hot water + shave towel
    Pre-Shave - Musgo Real Glyce
    Brush - Vulfix bristle
    Soap - Williams
    Mug - Green scuttle
    Razor - 13/16 Tahan
    Post - Thayers + Nivea balm

    Second shave with this razor, feels smoother this time around. I have noticed that not many guys here use Williams, and I don't really blame them. It does seem to dry up really quick, and I'll only use it with a scuttle so I can keep dunking the brush in very hot water when I need to. I do enjoy the scent of it though
