  • Brush: Elite Razor Honduran Rosewood Burl 24mm HMW Fan

  • Blade Holder: Gillette Super Adjustable 109 (Black Beauty) Gold O-4 (setting: 6)

  • Blade: Wilkinson Sword Black (5)

  • Lather: Floris London - No. 89 - Soap

  • Aftershave: Floris London - No. 89 - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I am totally enjoying the 1950's shave experience with No. 89. That wooden bowl just looks right next to my wash basin.
