    • Brush: Zenith MOAR BOAR
    • Razor: GEM Open Comb Micromatic Gen. 2
    • Blade: GEM PTFE (2)
    • Lather: Fanzine Saponifications - This Is A Test… - Puck
    • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. - Unscented - Aftershave
    • Osma: Osma - Osma
    • Bowl: Georgetown Pottery - G20

    This is my first shave since September. My beard was almost impossible to deal with. Super wiry, felt like it was stabbing me. Took 5 passes to get rid of everything, and on multiple occasions I had to take the blade out and rinse it because hair was building up in the razor.

    I’m happy to go with Fanzine Saponifications for this my first #rocktober shave. Not only does it have a pleasant scent, it has wonderful slickness that made this challenging shave all the easier. Really impressed on my first go-around with this soap.

    Fantastic shave. I just love the scent of Autumn Ash.

    I'm still not convinced that the slant makes much of a difference in shave quality. It sure looks cool though.
