    IMO, this is the kind of shave brush I "expect" from Razor Emporium (with knot options), but alas, Razor Emporium put out a standard looking resin and badger brush. Nice brush selection to match the Ambassador razor.

    A creamy and menthol monday with the GameChanger .68 plate series for the tool of choice.

    Prep: Hot Shower and Bloom/Lather Building Water
    Cream: Williams Refresh
    Razor: RazoRock GC .68 Series(Jaws, OC, and SB)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Razor
    Blade: Kai (2)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Blade (No Idea)
    Brush: Zenith Soft Synthetic
    AS: Williams Aqua Velva (Eur)
    ASB: Williams ASB (Eur)

    Squirted some cream into the bottom of my Captains Choice Heavy Copper, filled the VdH bowl with Hot water, wet the brush, and built the lather you see below. Whipped right up.

    Not a bad shave. Wasn't the greatest, but it wasn't bad. Pretty sure it would have been better if I didn't feel like I was in such a rush. Then again, you can't pick and choose your circumstances all of the time.
