Have found I have totally bonded with the T95 over the past two SOTDs and that brush :love: wow!!! No synthetic I have used is anything like this one.

I give the Lansky HD knot a big thumbs up and cant wait to one day compare it to the G5C. The Lansky is a 24mm knot that has plenty of density and backbone. It lathers like an absolute monster and when I face lather it provides the softest feel every experienced so far. Super happy with @TroyTools workmanship and willingness to venture onto something he has never tried before, results are just stunning..

Great to see the new brush and Lansky G5 knot pair so well and looking forward to that future G5C brush when its completed as its going to be hard to top "Purple Haze".

I thought you were going to work on killing that soap. You've got a long way to go if you don't get serious about loading up more product :LOL:

(y) Was thinking the same thing myself - maybe I'll just have to accept only samples and creams will ever make it to the Finished Products sticky

Thanks mate.. I already know what I will be doing with the G5C and feel it may well top purple haze.. well hard to really say if it will top it as it will be so different like comparing oranges and apples, but it will certainly be up there :)
 
Hotel room shave in Cairns.
