  • Brush: Maggard 24mm 2 Band Badger
  • Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable (I-2)
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Germany) (4)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Oro Valley - Soap
  • Post Shave: Pinaud - Clubman Special Reserve - Aftershave

Wonderful shave. This knot was relatively inexpensive (I think I actually got it for something like $10 from an artisan who was trying to get rid of some extraneous stuff), but it feels really nice. It doesn't have any gel, but it's good and soft while still letting you feel that something is there. I typically prefer the Maggard Silvertip to this one, but it depends on the day.

Oro Valley is such a lovely scent for the fall.
