Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps - Woodshop - Aftershave
Post Shave: Goodfellow & Co. - Face Lotion - Kelp & Sea Mineral
Excellent shave. The OG Guerilla always impresses me when I use it.
I de-knotted this brush handle yesterday (it used to have a Wolf Whiskers “Super Plush”, but Peter set it too deep for my preferences. I love synthetic knots, and it was a really nice one, but I couldn’t get behind the low loft.
I’m auditioning replacements, and this badger knot has been sitting in my medicine cabinet for a couple of years so figured I’d try it out. It was sold to me as “unknown”, but I’m pretty sure it’s a Maggard SHD. It has similarities to my other SHD knots, but there is some variation between all of them.
This one fits tight, so it stays in without adhesive. I wasn’t completely sold on it, but since this was the maiden voyage for the knot I’ll give it some time to break in before making a decision. Ultimately, I predict it’ll end up with a Maggard Synthetic in it :-).
