Razor: ATT SE1 w/Hempel Ti
Blade: Feather Professional (4)
Brush: WDC-6 Brass Handle TGN Silvertip Premium.
Soap: Route 66 Lavender Woods
Aftershave: Fine American Blend

Certainly one of the joys of my life is a new shave soap from Route 66. First time use of a newly arrived Route 66 Lavender Woods shave soap. Deep woods Cedar, crushed Pine tips and hints of unmistakable wild English Lavender synergize to create a soothing, woodsy scent. Was I disappointed, "No", was it great, "Yes". Three passes and a touch up and I was ready to go. Okay it's after supper so I'm not going anywhere, but if I was I'd be ready. A near BBS shave tonight.
The WDC-6 Brass handle brush, or as I like to call it, my Jason Bourne - MI-6 brush, would be a great weapon if someone crashed through my bathroom window while I was shaving. At 266.5 grams less knot it would be a fine weapon. It could happen.  .
Have a great evening.

Bravo amigo!!! You are indeed ready. The WDC-6 would be formidable weapon in your trained hands. I hope you had a great evening and are on your way toward an excellent weekend.

Well, there I was, all set for a shave with the Hone, and the Barbaros TR-1 comes knocking at the door... So,WOW... slightly more aggressive than I thought...I was thinking it would be similar to the Weber with a GSB...Smooth, don't get me wrong, but it definitely took me by surprise... need to find a milder blade.
