Soap - Ach Brito Mogno
Brush - YaqI 24mm Tuxedo Marble Handle
Razor - RazoRock Game Changer .84-P
Blade - Gillette Platinum (2)
Post - Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla ASL




For little over £4 , Ach Brito Mogno soap is excellent value. @Greybeard
Scent, lather and post shave are all top drawer.
Using it like a shave stick ensures enough is used, but I wouldn't mind grating it in to a dish, (I saw a nice one in a local charity shop at the weekend, and I'm kicking myself for not buying it now).

Superb shave today. Massive thanks to Rob @Blackmass for the Blackbird, I do not say this lightly: Easily the best DE I've had the pleasure of shaving with.
...
Looks cool as heck.

Very happy for you, James.

Very happy for you, James.

Thanks K. I thought I might yearn for the polished version but this machined one has a rugged charm of its own.

Bargain! What are the scent notes on the soap Paul?

My untrained nose isn't a reliable measure - the scent description is 'wood and sea'
Whatever it is - it's a very nice scent

Love a bit of driftwood, I'll give it a punt when I'm through with my next soap
