What are your impressions on the Sputnik? Thanks!

Razor: Masamune
Blade: Astra SP (3)
Brush: TNS L4 & The Varlet 27mm XD
Soap: Catie’s Bubbles Tactical Support

Decided it was time for the L4 & 27mm XD to be compared. Both are great brushes and the L4 is in a hybrid shape.

The Varlet 27mm XD loaded and released soap a hair easier. The TNS L4 is denser and to my surprise splayed a bit easier. Both are very soft and have great flow through.

Both are exceptional brushes and feel great in the hand and on the face.
