    A refreshing chili April morning shave with some of my favorites. Thanks @rawfox1 for sending a second Taiga my way (for a good price) with a Titanium handle. I must say, surprisingly the Ti does make a significant difference in the shave (in a good way!). I didn’t think it would alter it that much - somehow felt significantly more maneuverable. I’m going to keep it on there for a while.

    Happy Healthy Shaves all.

    Great shave this morning. Such a smooth shave. The brush is a nice brush. Obviously it isnt a gel tip uber expensive knot, but it had nice backbone, it isnt floppy and it didnt shed a single hair. I still cant seem to get any badger to hold lather. I may have yo revisit lathering 101 guides to see if maybe im just knot getting it ( pun intended )

    Bbs smooth and im diggin it
