New synthetic knot that I got from Chisel & Hound. It's a really good synthetic, I like it! The handle is one of Rob's Finest, that's for sure.

I really like Barrister & Mann aftershave. Other aftershaves can either be drying, or overly moisturizing. B&M is just right. It doesn't leave any sort of oily film, but at the same time my skin feels great.
