  • Brush: AP Shave Co. Handle w/26mm Maggard SHD
  • Razor: Personna BBS-0
  • Blade: Personna Platinum Chrome (1)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Almond Creme - Soap
  • Post Shave: Spearhead - Seaforth! Heather - Toner
  • Post Shave: Goodfellow & Co. - Face Lotion - Kelp & Sea Mineral

This razor is great. Mild and efficient, a perfect match for me. I think it's made out of stamped brass? The handle is the worst part of this razor, so I use an aftermarket one to add some grip and weight. The original handle is very thin and made of machined aluminum from what I can tell.

Great shave today. Very surprising how much better a straight razor shave feels post-shave vs a DE or SE shave.
