  6. Another flawless shave, from a Spanish Rescue Razor. I had a very smooth 2 pass shave, that left me Baby Dolphin Butt Smooth(BDBS). Zero issues. Also, I do like this little workhorse of a brush. The Shave Cream is also great. Easy to lather, and super slick.

    Razor- Filarmonica 14. Doble Temple, JMP. Made in Spain.
    Brush- Wilkinson Sword. Boar
    Soap- Taylor of Old Bond Street(TOBS). Cedarwood
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman
