I really have to comment on the Zenith brush. With it's first run (without breaking in period), it became my favourite brush! Outrun my beloved Omega pros, Semogue SOC badger, Stirling badger and a bunch of synthetics

Just a great face feel (that - for me - only boar can provide

), dense, but with good flowthrough, ideal knot (28x57mm) for facelather.

One and a half very easy and careful passes on this Rockwell blade in the WCS Mariner razor. My neck is still recovering from the abuse inflicted by an overly enthusiastic me, a fresh and very sharp Derby blade, loaded into that aggressive Rockwell razor the other day. The line between incredibly close shave and a bloody mess is a narrow one.

I have to say the B&M First Snow is very good. Excellent pine/juniper scent, and slick rich lather. Following that with the crisp apple scent of the Summer Break Teacher's Pet splash is just an awesome way to start the day.

L'Essor handle threading is same as Fatip, so swapping SABI top cap here allows use of the weightier Blackbird handle and also tames aggression somewhat without noticeable sacrifice in efficiency. Beautiful two pass + BBS. Supermax BDT (3).
