That's a nice brush, I've thought of getting a Gallahad.Just used my first brush. It is a Semogue Galladad boar. I have been using Cremo and my hand. The brush is a different experience ,but I liked it. My face is drier after using soap, and feels better than Cremo since it has begun to get hot and humid.View attachment 1465225
Nice brush, not sure if you know this but a boar brush likes a least a few minutes warm water soaking before use seems to work better and easier on the brush bristles for longer life of the brush(good choice).

Used a local soap that I got at farmers market. Used it for second time and lathered better today, no cuts or irritation and used clubman aftershave. Soap smells great, but can't judge performance because I have nothing to compare it to.

Nice to hear from a local person. I will keep an eye out for your posts. Take care.I like your brush. It will get even better over time.
I noticed where your soap was made. I live in much the same neighborhood.
Happy shaves,

Meant to reply that you live in Augusta earlier. I work in Augusta, but live in Johnston SC. We sold asparagus at the farmers market, that is how I found the soap.I like your brush. It will get even better over time.
