    It never ceases to amaze me just how talented some forum members are.
    A chap on the UK forums not only worked out that the thread of the Gibbs handle wasn't a modern readily available one but managed to lay his hands on the appropriate tool and threaded the brass insert himself.
    He then turned this beautiful handle to match the equally beautiful brush.
    Consider my hat well and truly doffed.

    Hi Josh
    Thankyou for the very comprehensive description. On your recommendation I checked Amazon UK and was rather surprised to find it considerably cheaper than buying from China. I think I may just try this one!

    An unexpected day off work and a late shave due to a builder repairing recent damage to guttering and the roof.
    I had a good shave but didn't enjoy bowl lathering the MWF. I just feel I have more control when face lathering with it.

    RazoRock Black Hawk
    Feather Professional
    CWR
    Tabac AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #2 brush. I did two passes with the RazoRock Black Hawk Razor with a Feather Professional blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    2nd use of the Spiced Rum scent from Green Mountain Soap. Full disclosure I was sent this soap, did not purchase it. I will hold my review until I have a free more shaves with it, you can't fairly review a soap from one shave!
    Osage Rub continues to wake me up better than coffee!! IMG_20181220_101303_383.jpg
