Cool setup. How would you rate the Zenith now that it is getting all broken in?

 

I love the Blu. It's my favorite of the two.

 

Jared, I really like the Zenith Boar. This one is the B2 with an aluminum handle and 26x57mm knot. This is by far my favorite boar brush. It replaced my Omega which was gifted away. This loft works very well. I have the chrome handle with the same knot and taller loft that I do not like as well.

 

That's one sweet looking Milord!

 

Parker Variant razor
Gillette Silver Blue blade
Shave Revolution Metaloid Synthetic brush
Vintage Williams SS w/2 drops of M-Bomb
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Pinaud Clubman A/S

The 2 drops of M-Bomb in the Williams provided a very nice cooling effect. The Shave Revolution brush evidently loved the Williams SS 'cuz I got a fantabulous lather. The Parker delivered another fantastic shave and I am so pleased with myself it's not funny. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Thank you Guy. 24k revamp by Matt at Razor Emporium. The singleton razor in my collection that is not original.

 

That is good to hear. I had abysmal luck with that Stubby model I bought, but have just started working on an aluminum B2.

I figure the handle from the stubby will look nice with a big fat badger in it someday.

 

I have found my vintage Colgate puck NEEDS really good hot water to get a good lather. So it has become my permanent scuttle puck. Also I'm very impressed with the Vaskhod blade. I'm atleast a week to 10 days on the current blade....I keep meaning to toss it for a fresh one but it just keeps going and I keep forgetting.

Ahh... feeling good, smelling good, and not leaving the house for the rest of the day if I can help it....

Schick L1 injector
Chick blade
Arko Cool cream
Witch hazel mixed with Fine Platinum
Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, touch up

Decent hotel shave. It's just not the same quality as home shaves. Not bad though. Arko Cool smells fresh, like Irish Spring soap.

Have a great day!
