Brush: Simpsons, PJ2
Soap: Cologne Russe
Razor: Le Coq
Blade: Le Gem SS
Post: Cologne Russe, Le Nivea

First use of this French Lather Catcher that arrived the other day. Seller dated it as 1930's and it certainly seems a more modern construction with it's aluminium handle. I started by trying to use the wedge, supposedly honed, but quickly swapped to a Gem blade. This was never going to be a mild shave, with an open comb lather catcher, but though efficient it was pretty smooth. Three passes for a DFS.

Have a great weekend​

Great shave and a nice start to the day. Off to see my mum in law for a practice run on her wedding next week, the worst of it all is that I got a morning suit last week and their wedding is super informal, the world needs more gents in formal wear!

Just remember: there's no such thing as 'overdressed'.

First run of the L7 - beautiful brush, the knot is superb, the handle perhaps a little smaller than I'm used to, but still a pleasure to use. Thank you @todras !

No problems at all, Lee's knots are just superb, head and shoulders over just about everything else on the market save for maybe Declaration and Paladin.
