    Razor : OneBlade V2 w/ Feather FHS-10 blade
    Brush : Ever-Ready #750 (Was my very first brush. Given to me by my Dad when I was 14 years old 56 years ago) Restored with a Golden Nib Premium Badger knot).
    Soap: Stirling Bakerstreet
    Finish : Alum stone and Proraso Green aftershave.

    Another great shave with the RFB. Had to get the PAA Gray Label Doppelgänger as it’s their version of the Creed Aventus scent and I’m a Creed fan. Honestly, it was quite good in scent strength, especially the splash/cologne. Very good results in the end. Have a great evening and great shaves all.... ;)

    Found all soaps to be mild smelling out of the box, hoped they'd strengthen once lathered, haven't developed yet, will see if it improves with a couple uses.

    Yes. That is correct! What a shame to lose such a talented artisan. He was just a wonderful gentleman to work with and extremely accommodating and very skilled.
    I am very fortunate to have a few of his lovely handles.
