1. 5/8 T.I.
    Stratford Lavender Soap
    Thater brush

    I'd have to say lavender has nothing to do with the scent of this soap it's more of musty basement scent. I picked up this unused soap at a flea market last summer, figured it was an old tallow base soap. I did a fair amount of work (playing around) with this brush, it was the prickliest brush I've ever run across. The brush turned out to be a good one and will go into rotation. Next week I'll work with ABC brush which I don't believe will be a problem. Nice shave today and very decent post shave feel from the Stratford Soap . Have a good one.

  9. Mine came from The Superior Save with a fantastic edge and it has been easy to maintain. When I struggle with a blade I’ll send it out to be honed.

    :love055: Wow, looks fantastic. Mine is in the mail.
