I got that razor in the Seafarer's Safety Razor Head Collection from the Shapeways website. It includes the Whalebone Slant head along with the Manatee Open Comb head. All I did was supply the machine screw that attaches the head to the razor handle. Works great!

Shapeways, of course — now why didn’t I think of doing my razor shopping there?
Thanks, Sammy!

Razor: Gem G Bar for the first pass, but finished with the Merkur Progress (taking it slow as I venture into SE territory).

Soap: PPA Crown King sampler.

Brush: Yaqi synthetic; 26mm.

Post shave: witch hazel and Proraso balm.

Overall a pretty good shave. BBS on the checks, and near BBS on the neck.
