    SOTD:
    Beautiful SOTD today, that brush is still getting better and better each day.

    Boar brushes are definitely my new favourite, especially when the split ends start kicking in, and i love how well they retain water compared to synthetics!

    I decided to switch out the Wilkinson sword blade for my feather which now has 34 shaves on it! Its still going strong, but not smooth at all anymore, not uncomfortable or tugging yet so there's hope for it yet!

    The Wilkinson sword blade will be used again from next week.

    First shave with arko cool today, and i am definitely impressed! Ill write a review on it tomorrow but its a great smelling cream,it has a very modern scent.

    This Wilkinson sword razor is definitely becoming a firm favourite fast, what a fantastic razor!

    Razor: Wilkinson sword classic TTO
    Blade: feather hi-stainless (34)
    Brush: Wilkinson sword classic shave premium edition
    Cream: Arko cool
    Aftershave balm: the body shop maca root razor relief.[​IMG]

    Nice shave and it is hard to beat a "broken" in boar.

    Thanks! This one isnt broken in quite yet, ive only used it 3 times although this brush takes much less time to break in when compared to my other new boar brush the Omega 49, but the split ends are forming and it keeps getting better!

    Anyone have any experience with Elite Razor's Manchurian White knots?

    Safe travels, Jim. At least you're coming home on a Friday and will have rest and family time over the weekend.

    It's a beauty, Jim. Is it actually made of copper or just plated?

    Thank you, Charlie.
    It's a copper silver alloy for strength that is then electro plated with copper for looks.

    I wish you the best of luck in your quest, Andrew. You're not just finding you a knot, you're finding us a knot.

    I get in fairly early Friday as well, so that is an added bonus.

    Swimming through the flow,
    better to post as I go!
    I didn't Dale, until I did a Reverse Google Image Search. If you ARE Billy, I'm not calling you out. Considering your loquaciousness I assume you're just a fan of his. Thanks for the intro to an interesting multi-talented artist! I enjoy Punk, Grunge, Garage, Nerd Core, Lo-Fi, and interesting covers of main stream artists by unknown musicians.
    I've been slowly adding to my Den in a selective manner. Trying to match soap and AS scents in products I enjoy. Considering Pinaud is a low priced product so some folks assume it's cheap. That's their opinion. Granules are optional and in my experience, haven't been encountered yet.
    My scoring plan, too. It's really not worth the damage or irritation to get that last little bit. I do three full passes, and often go back for the places where I know always miss some. My long term goal is to develop my technique to do less clean up, and eventually fewer passes. I could also lower my standards and be happy with a CCS or SAS.
