    American Razor used today. Named after a Hotel in Chicago. I had a very smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues. Very well made razor, especially since it started out as a "Plated" razor,.

    Razor- "The Palmer". Chicago.
    Brush- Wilkinson Sword Boar. Zero issues, no shedding, and keeps getting softer. Pretty good for a $6.9o brush.
    Soap- Arko/Sandalwood Scented.
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman

    Sadly, but great for me :), it seems it was dropped early in its life. Gold wash is in good condition.

    Those are hard rubber/ebonite and they are very cool. I’ve always wanted a razor with that scale material. Be careful though, they’re brittle so I’m told by folks that would know!

    Cheers, Steve
