  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Gulf Short 26mm V22 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Gillette Fatboy E4 (setting: 7)
  • Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock SharpEdge (Yellow) (2)
  • Lather: Murphy and McNeil - Gael Laoch Orange - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Lemon - Toner
  • Aftershave: Murphy and McNeil - Gael Laoch Orange - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I have this soap in the Kodiak base which has bear tallow in it. It's a nice base, but I would like to learn how the animal the tallow comes from makes a difference.
