    Razor : Yaqi Slope slant torsion type, 316 SS- Mfg 2023>, mild to tame mid range depending on blade used, great machining and finish QC for my shaving needs. It could be a daily driver for myself and others. I use a Kai SS extra wide for a little more blade feel to make it a tame mid range for aggression and very efficient IMO. Had a excellent shave this morning.
    Blade : Kai SS extra wide, sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. Top tier blade for myself.
    Soap : Yaqi Musketeer rapier, Very nice scented soap similar to (Aramis) with excellent lather qualities. Yaqi Commissioned Master soap creations S.A to bring forward Yaqi line of soaps and fragrances. Very nice fragrance for myself to indulge in.
    Brush : Yaqi " Moka express" 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Witch hazel beard cleanse + Yaqi Musketeer Rapier splash + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : [​IMG] or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 2 blemish weepers=[​IMG] excellent shave with my Yaqi Slope slant with a Kai SS extra wide.

    Brush : Yaqi "Ever helpful" 22mm 2band badger, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, excellent splay scrubber + great lather painter. This brush is a excellent splay scrubber because of a shorter loft and still has a reasonable soft face feel.
