Trumper's Rose Shave Soap
Moss Scuttle
Rugra 5/8
Generic witch hazel

My SR brush is the least fussy of all my brushes. I get excellent lather without having to be too precise with water, soap or cream, or brush technique. It really is the non-descript workhorse of my brushes....like the old family car that or a good offensive lineman. Gets the job done right and no headlines.

Razor: Cooncat Bob HD handle with NEW head
Blade: Super Iridium
Brush: Simpson's Ehsan
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: Irisch Moos Shave Stick
A/S: Trumper Marlborough
I decided to give an open comb a spin today. The Cooncat Bob HD handle with a re-plated NEW head is perfectly balanced and was a joy to use. The Ehsan, as always, ginned up an abundance of lather and I enjoyed a BBS shave. The Trumper's Marlborough aftershave does not get a lot of love on the forums but it is really an outstanding scent. YMMV, of course.

Merkur HD
Gillette 7 O'Clock SharpEdge (shave #2)
Omega 30005 Boar
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap
Speick After Shave Lotion
My first time using the Omega (last part of my Valentine's gift along with the TOBS Almond and German Pitralon) or any quality boar brush for that matter. The MWF didn't stand a chance. I proceeded to whip up the best lather ever from the Fat, and I've got some pretty good lathers from it using my EJ Super Badger. I love the backbone of this brush and it felt great as I face-lathered. I can't wait to hit the Tabac with it tomorrow. A fantastic brush.
