Hot Water Splash
D.R. Harris Arlington Shave Soap
Morris & Forndran L6 Finest in faux Briar
John Holler & Co. Tower Brand #126
Scrupleworks Vegetable Tanned Horsehide .. 30/50
Bloc Osma
Witch Hazel
D.R. Harris Arlington AfterShave Splash

The Holler razor has become a "test bed" of sorts as I get more accustomed to the Gokumyo 20K. Things are improving as this little blade delivered a very close, and reasonably comfortable shave..

First outing for the new Morris & Forndran .. lovely brush!

Not to nitpick here guys, but I think this thread was created for discussing the topic of andrewjs18 posting our SOTD photos to other social media sites like Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, not for actually posting our SOTD photos. You guys have some great pictures and gear that would be better shared on the actual SOTD thread. Here is the current one, https://damnfineshave.com/thread-sotd-6-...16?page=15. A lot more people will see and appreciate them if you post them there.

Awesome brush right there. Can't ever go wrong with Burberry either. I love the London this time of year.

This thread has turned into something of a snare, since it is intended as more of a discussion about SOTD photos than an actual SOTD photo thread.

As Jeff said earlier, please make sure to post your photos on the current weekly thread, so that even more forum users can enjoy them. And keep up the great photos! Smile

Folks, as Jeff and Matt have stated, the purpose of this thread was for explaining what andrewjs18 would be doing with a few of the SOTD photos.  He planned on getting them from the SOTD thread, I believe, not here.  Your SOTD photos will get more exposure in the regular weekly SOTD threads so please post them there.

Thanks. Smile

Could be wrong but I bet Jason at TryABlade could answer for you!

I use Feathers in my Valet without an issue.

Feather FHS-10 is the part number.
