The brushless shaving cream gets the SOTD job done in no time flat. Reminds me of the old days when I used shaving cream in a pressurized can. No brush, just wet the face, apply the lather, shave off the whiskers, rinse and done. Maybe a splash of aftershave. Now that I've got the time, I get a kick out of using the brush and the soaps and creams that go along with it. But for now, I'm still using up the whole bottle of brushless cream, and enjoying it for what it is. Good stuff and slick.

Penhaligon's English Fern shaving soap (tallow)
RazoRock Mamba/Triad Spiral Titanium

An especially good shave. The brush has very firm backbone and slight scritch, reminding me of vintage Simpson Manchurians. The soap is marvelous.

Today's departure from the previous SOTD is the change of blade after 20 shaves.
