Brush:- Blue Devil - Doral (Native Olive) handle with 26mm AP Shave Co G5C knot
Soap:- Seaforth - Sea-Spice-Lime (with thanks to @JaggardJ for the sample)
Razor:- Tatara Masamune Nodachi
Blade:- Treet Platinum (2)

It would be splitting hairs (pun intended) to compare the Nodachi and Blackbird for overall performance but then why compare when I can just enjoy both :)

Happy Shaves P&C
Never thought I’d be a fellow TMN fan with those dotty handles. :)

Totally agree. I thought the handle was a bit of a gimick and the head would shave no better than Lupo or Apollo but I was mistaken. It has a wonderful light feel that would give most Titanium razors a run for their money and the blade is curved which for my mileage provides a better shave than most other razors in the den or moved on and does not need a super sharp blade to perform.
 
Been a while since I have posted one of these. Super enjoyable shave this evening though and I felt it warranted a share. Lucky I have a refill of both of the Myrsols else there would be much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
