    Does not sound like a very good brush if you have to baby it. Or am I missing something?

    the knots absorb too much water at the base and split the beechwood handles if you soak the whole brush instead of just immersing the bristles..my second one has been fine since i learned that..

    Saturday's Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    LaToja Shaving Stick
    Jayaruh #296 Brush
    Gem Micromatic Bullet Tip
    CVS CS SE
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend

    Spent the night in Roanoke, VA. Another great shave. My prep was just a cold water rinse. The LaToja Shaving Stick face lathered well with the Jayaruh #296 Brush. I did two passes with the Gem Micromatic Bullet Tip razor with a CVS CS SE Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Granddad's Blend AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    C15C2138-D159-4CE6-BE0D-3881947A5853.jpeg Saturday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Wilkinson day 6
    Reitzer SS
    Prep ASB
    Booster Mosswood AS Splash

    I’ve been neglecting the Reitzer soap for a long time and that’s not nice because it’s so good - it smells beautiful, five minutes of blooming it was enough for it to give me a boatload of great lather with such a soothing, comfortable postshave feeling. I know I sound like a broken record but I love the Prep so much and the Booster Mosswood aftershave is one of my top favorites - what a lovely old school barbershop scent it has. Three passes made minced meat out of my tough stubble and left me looking gorgeous as well as mega-BBS!
