Still getting used to it. It is a very nice brush but it'll take a little while to decide if it's keeper or not.How is the CH3 treating you @Nightguard ?
Brush: Chubby 3
Razor: Wilkinson Sticky
Blade: English Wilkinson
Soap: MWF
A/S: GFT Skinfood

Quick, easy and flawless three pass shave. I always forget how effective and smooth the Wilkinson sticky is, almost no blade feel but it almost never fails to deliver a BBS.

This morning shave nothing special I'm in US in Washington DC it 12:25pm and I'm about to have lunch. Cheers
Mid-morning shaves on a Saturday are so enjoyable. Plenty of light, plenty of coffee consumed, wife out for breakfast and Bible study at her friends, just me and the Man Cave.
What setting do you have your Progress on?Razor: Merkur Progress
Blade: Feather
Pre-Shave: Occams Original Pre-Shave Soap
Brush: Simpson Chubby 1 Super Badger
Soap: Stirling Barbershop
Post Shave: Stirling Barber Shop Post Shave Balm
What setting do you have your Progress on?
Yes I have had it for 14 months but could not get a good shave out of it. Came back to it and it is brilliant but I do not go beyond 1.5 on mine. Paired with a feather it is now a great shaver.I leave it on 3.5 which has always worked well for my WTG XTG WTG routine. Occasionally if my skin is feeling a bit sensitive/dry I will pull it back to 3 but that's a rare occasion.
Do you use a Progress yourself ?
Washington is a great place - trust you enjoy your time there.
Safe travels!
@todras / @Osman thought i would chime in as well i have a Progress and a Mergerss its interesting how different settings suit different people what suits me is (3) WTG, XTG, ATG and then because of the way my whiskers grow on my neck ATG on (4) working my way in from each ear lobe on the neck only, Sometimes if i have a four day growth my first pass WTG on (5) and then i dial her back.
