    Great shave from the Sheraton- thinking about a replate- with a Nacet blade. Excellent lather (T+S Yuzu Rose Patchouli), Elite brush and finish from Chatillon Lux.

    Good question Doug. We'll have to ask @Jayaruh . He confirmed it was synthetic horse but didn't specify where it came from.

    The Contour does struggle with the grey stubble but I imagine it would deal very well with younger whiskers.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Stumbled onto better lathering with this line of soaps using hottest water, while always slick and smoother, lathered better and faster this way. Also, had been meaning to try these blades as they're one of the ones often encountered while traveling, in short, performed fine, but nothing to warrant the prices they're found at, I find the CVS Blade for Men (personna?) blades to be better in performance and value.

    What size knot does the shave brush take? I just landed a Ralph Lauren NOS brush for 40 bucks - not sure it was a great deal but I liked the looks of it and it goes with my other pewter stuff.

    I love it too - it is an Omega Pro 27mm set at 60mm. Great face feel. Really to bad Doug stopped making brushes

    Thanks Douglas, but the Contour is one of the razors missing from this stable and I think it's going to stay missing.
    I'm not over impressed.
