  • Brush: Chisel and Hound Ambrosia Maple with 26 mm synthetic Maggard knot
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels 14 (8/8", extra hollow ground, carbon steel)
  • Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac Original
  • Aftershave: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac Original

The vegan Tabac seems to prefer synthetic brushes. I'm not sure how I feel about that yet.

I now am the proud owner of three horse brushes to try, but I haven't yet.
