Quite surprise (for good) on the soap performance. This knot probably has the largest backbone effect of all I have, but it is surprisingly soft on the face.

SOTD 14 Oct 2018 OSP 1882, Thiers-Issard Le Dandy, Alpha T-400 Brush

I was inspired by Geo Fatboy @geofatboy to break out the Theirs-Issard. I coupled it up with a beautiful soap from James Riley one at OSP (Obsessive Soap Perfectionist - soaps made on London, UK). A great blade and a great soap. A nice brush with a 26mm High Mountain white knot - I decided not to do a straight video today and instead had my son take a load of photos during the shave - how does this work for you guys?
