  • Brush: Wald Nimbus Chryselephantine 29mm A1 Fan

  • Razor: F.W. Engels Special 5/8 Full Hollow

  • Lather: Ariana & Evans - Peach & Cognac - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Rose - Toner

  • Aftershave: Ariana & Evans - Peach & Cognac - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


Too hot today for me to use Tabac. Peach & Cognac was a wonderful substitute.

This F.W. Engels is a great little razor. I really like the weight and balance of it. The Jnat edge had that light, feathery feel yet it removed whiskers effortlessly. Yes, this was another test shave. Here is the video.
