John, that big Rooney is my all time favorite. I have one just like it, and an even larger one that had to be repaired due to faulty glueing, and is still at a loft of 65. These two are priceless examples of shaving brush perfection.

Lather made in a bowl, as always.

A fellow wetshaver sent me this razor to try, saying it was too mild for him, and I used it for the first time tonight. I would say that it worked the best for me of any Injector so far, though the shave was just okay. Hopefully, with a little more experience, I will get better results.
