  • Brush: Summer Break Soaps - Unbleached Zenith 28mm Boar
  • Razor: Koraat Moarteen (15/16", full hollow, square point, r/wetshaving exclusive) (21)
  • Lather: Stirling - Scot's Pine Sheep - Soap
  • Post Shave: Stirling - Lampasas - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Stirling - Glacial Unscented - Balm
  • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two - EdT

Close shave with the Moarteen, but I definitely had some weepers on my jawline after the third pass. The blade still feels great, but my technique could still improve in that area.

Beautiful scent combo as well. I have maybe a fifth of the Roam Two frag left. This is probably one I'll try to replace if I can find one second hand.

  • Brush: Wolf Whiskers - "Gianmaria" w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Puma 76 - Solingen - 13/16 Half Hollow (4)
  • Lather: Noble Otter - Logbook - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Petrichor - Aftershave

I got bit by the Puma 😩

I thought all of my razors had muted points, but apparently this one could use some more muting :-)

Other than that, great shave! This Puma 76 isn't my favorite razor when it comes to the shaves I get, but it has a really very nice quality feel to it. Sturdy scales, quality steel, etc. This razor has the lowest bevel angle of my razor collection, coming in at 15.87 degrees. My favorite razor (currently the Rheingold Licht Werk 6/8 Half Hollow) has a 16.08 degree bevel... not much higher, but maybe a large enough difference to change the shave.

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

This was my first shave with Spaghetti Western. A very interesting combination of scent notes with this one. I really enjoyed it.

This soap was featured in The Great Spice Off #6 and was Adventus Calendar day 23.

It's a tragedy that OSP closed down. This base is amazing. The scent is on the Old Spice neighborhood and smells great. I overloaded the soap and there's enough left in the bowl for tomorrow. It made gobs and gobs of lather. It was foamy at the beginning but collapsed into a sloppy, slick yogurt.

Have a good day.
