The razor blade worked a treet ( I'll get me coat). Very smooth shave with the Rex. I did need a few extra touch-ups but with a blade this smooth you don't mind sacrificing a little sharpness.

First use of the Saponificio Bignoli cream. Scent is a pleasant lemon/citrus, subtle from the jar but opens up once lathered. Easy to lather and performance was very good. Not much post shave though. The Fine aftershave took care of tbe post shave living my skin soft and supple. 

Stay cool gents.

Excellent looking kit amigo. But, my curiosity and questions stems from the Maseto Badger that you have. I know you have and used quite a few brushes and I've been on the fence about acquiring one. I prefer larger knots and Maseto makes a 30mm. How's the performance compared to other Silvertips you've tried? Thanks brother....

Cheers Mate,
Gus
