    Thanks, appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Re: the brush- I believe it's stabilized wood and resin (faux tortoise). The maker calls it Briar. The knot is a two band medium density, pretty scrubby but I've only used it once. It made a fantastic lather. I'm interested to see if it will break in at all. There is an even distribution of dark hairs and the lighter hairs are curling slightly.

    Beaudelaire Day
    Excellent scent, excellent lather, excellent shave. So far, I like the tuxedo knot better than the cashmere. It could simply be the size - both are 24mm at the base, but the tuxedo acts larger in use for some reason - maybe less springy.
    Prep: Chattilon Lux butter
    Soap: B-M Beaudelaire
    Brush: Slugger 159
    Razor: Futur (6)
    Blade: voskhod
