Moss Anniversary Slate scuttle
Rooney Stubby 3XXL Ivory Finest (33/52)
Floris Elite shaving cream (vintage)
Weber DLC/UFO U2V1 Brass
Gillette Platinum Plus (1)
Floris Elite aftershave (vintage)
The first shave on a new blade often is slightly rough for me, despite hand stropping, but this one was quite smooth from the git-go, giving me a typical BBS shave.
Today is national Spouse's Day. Sometimes seen as a warmup to Valentine's Day, it is an opportunity to let your spouse know how much you appreciate them. And I certainly appreciate mine. She has made the last 11 years the best of my life.

Absolutely gorgeous! This is by far the best barrel-shaped brush I have ever seen!
I'd have to agree. It's a great size and the antique wood gives it a great feel/texture etc (it's vintage oak). Quite ergonomic.
(I think I know who No.1 is!)
