coming soon | Fatip | Piccolo | Was my favorite razor, until I acquired my vintage gillettes. | **** |
coming soon | Gillette | Old type | For the most part it is my daily driver. Provides smooth, effortless shaves. | ***** |
coming soon | Gillette | New long comb (USA) | Second to the old type. Also a smooth and effortless shaver. | ***** |
coming soon | HTGAM | Symmetry | Great open comb, close to the Fatip in terms of aggression. | **** |
coming soon | Icon | SC 101 | Mild razor, smooth and effective. Neat concept on a closed bar and open comb head design. | ***** |
coming soon | Merkur | 37c slant bar | Very efficient, used on alternating weekends. | **** |
coming soon | Merkur | Progress | Adjustable, can be too mild to very aggressive. Great for adjusting for different passes. | **** |
coming soon | Muhle | R41 | In my opinion, the most aggressive de razor I own. Used on alternating weekends. | **** |
Brushes

coming soon | Omega | B&B essential boar hair (Every issue) | Fantastic brushes for the money. Once broken in they are soft with good backbone to provide a scrubby feel. | ***** |
coming soon | L'occitane | Plisson synthetic | The softest brush I own. It does not a whole lot of backbone, but I have no issues loading or face lathering. | ***** |
coming soon | Whipped dog | Silvertip, 24mm knot 45mm knot height | Very soft, holds an unbelievable amount of water and lather. Firehouse handle is gorgeous and has a lot of heft to it. | ***** |
Creams

coming soon | D.R. Harris | Rose | Smells like a bouquet of roses to me. The cream was harder than expected, and not as easy to lather as the other creams. Lather is slick and protective, no issues with quality. | **** |
coming soon | D.R. Harris | Marlborough | Scent is difficult to describe. I personally like the scent. West coast shaving has the scent description as a blend of cedar and sandalwood. Lather whips up easily and is slick. | **** |
coming soon | Cyril R. Salter | Indian Sandalwood | My favorite cream by far. Easy to whip up a lather, love the scent. It is not a pure sandalwood, but a spicy rendition of one of my favorite scents. | ***** |
