What caused your recent shift to Sebum Gold as your daily driver? Your prior posts talk mostly about Cella (it is still in your signature & you have kilos of it per earlier posts), Stirling Sheep, Dove (you've posted that this is your best soap) and Williams (3 puck grated into a mug). Very little mention of Sebum gold until now beyond listing it in your soap inventory.Muhle across the board. Razor. Blade. Brush. Soap. Aftershave balm. 1 pass shave. Best shave.
Martin soap.
Cella soap.
Caswell Massey for fancy soap.
Sebum gold for daily use.
Plisson shavette.
Use what you’ve got. Everything else shave den.What caused your recent shift to Sebum Gold as your daily driver?

P.S. How have you found the Sebum Gold compares to your other shaving soaps?
Who do you purchase your Floid from? Also I know they got rid of the Floid Black but I keep hearing different things about whether the genuine, vigoroso, and suave are shutting down as well or not? Lots of places are out of stock but it looks like some still have it. Kind of like when Master was running dry but I hope not. Thanks for any info!I doubt that for me it will ever be settled, but for the last few months it has narrowed down considerably, with the main theme being 'milder but efficient'. Most frequent saves are:
Razor - alternates between Karve CB with B, C, or occasionally D depending on how my neck feels, and Timeless SS with titanium handle and .68 plate. Razor changes with a blade change, every 5 or 6 shaves. Sometimes extends to a longer streak. There is an Overlander in the mail, and I expect the rotation will increase to 3.
Blade - usually Nacet. Occasionally Astra green.
Soap - MWF about 80% of shaves. Second choice is Santa Maria Del Fiore.
Brush - Rotation of boars: currently Omega 49, Semogue 1305, 830, and Razorock. One day then a good dryout. Synthetic if i'm in a hurry.
AS - Floid "the Genuine" about 80% of my shaves. Favourite alternate is Santa Maria del Fiore.
Cheers.
I got mine from Italian Barber. They carry the Genuine, Vigoroso, Black, and Suave, but I just checked and they're all out of stock right now. Same with Top Of The Chain.Who do you purchase your Floid from?
