  • Prep: hot shower
  • Brush: Muhle 39K527 Synthetic Silvertip Shaving Brush, Faux Ivory, 19mm
  • Razor: Gillette Ball-end Tech K4 (1965)
  • Blade: Lord Super Chrome (1)
  • Lather: Stirling โ€“ Sharp Dressed Man - Shave Soap
  • Post Shave: Stirling โ€“ Sharp Dressed Man - Post Shave Balm

I wasn't planning on using this brush today, but as I was choosing my gear I accidentally knocked it off the shelf and directly into the trash. After cleaning it I figured it's already wet, so why not just go ahead and use it.

First time using a Lord Super Chrome in my Tech. Super comfortable.
