Feather blade
Pure badger brush

I see that a denser brush doesn't work as good as a loose one. OK my Shavemac is much softer and a great quality but I can see faster results with the pure badger!

Feather blade

The pure badger brush created a very good lather but it was very prickly!
And feather blades are the best blades for me until now.

I do the 3 pass shave, WTG -XTG-ATG but with a fresh feather I don't really need an ATG on my cheeks but for sure ATG under my chin.

When I am on a hurry I go WTG and then XTG cheens and ATG chin!
