    Thank you. The Mahogany and the Nivea Deep make a really nice pain. Not exact matches but they work together nicely. I randomly found the Nivea at a local store and it was love at first sniff.

    John, you have some excellent safety razors in your den! I love my Vector, and should shave with it more, but keep selecting others lately! The Vector and my Colonial General V2 are my goto AC safety razors! I used to be primarily a boar guy, but lately have been blown away by some of the excellent synthetic knots now available. Enjoy your day! :)

    Great shave kit as usual, but I would respectfully disagree with your comparison. I also have both, and shave regularly with MWF. Electric Sheep is good stuff, but I find the after shave MWF skin benefits as a long term MWF user to be superior. YMMV. :)

    Went with the MonoBilt for a 3rd day. The A&E really is a quality lather, the scent just plain works with OS and dupes as well. 3 easy passes to smoothness. This brush is probably my favourite resin handle- quite comfortable in the hand, and these Pro knots works well in everything I throw 'em in. The Spicy isn't an exact match with Shulton (the Reserve Spice is the closest dupe that I have, fwiw) but isn't too far off.
    Have a great day all!

    Great shave kit, Clint! I always enjoy that brush handle when you pull it out. Supply shaves are always great! :)

    Interesting comments on the Zenith and an Omega, John. That Chubby looks like a great knot, and the shorter loft would get away from any floppiness (my complaint about the cheaper Zenith I have). You don't like Omegas? Limp noodle? Were they the big Pro knots?

    Cool looking shave kit, Danny! I’m glad the new Yaqi AC safety razor worked so well for you! Your Delrin kit really grabs one’s attention! Enjoy your day! :)

    Is your best vetiver perfume worth the money? Interesting question. How much is 'the best' worth...
    Great pic and combo, regardless.

    Thanks Jeff. I have a Razorock Plisoft brush as part of my shave kit for work/travel. It’s one heck of a nice performing brush. I want to add another synthetic, just waiting for the right handle to come my way.

    Mike's soap carved up with an excellent CH2 knot, wiped away with a Supply? That is as easy as it gets. Great pic and combo, Clint.
