  • Brush: Zenith B44 28mm Boar

  • Razor: Koraat 14 "Moarteen" 15/16" Full Hollow

  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - I, Rich Moose (Mutton -r/Wetshaving) - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner

  • Aftershave: Stirling Soap Co. - I, Rich Moose - Aftershave

  • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz - Sir Irisch Moos - Eau de Cologne

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I am really enjoying I, Rich Moose. The scent and lather are perfect. As I did last August, this month I am forgoing stropping my straight. Although I only did my normal 2-pass shave yesterday, I plan to do 3-pass shaves for the rest of the month. Let's see how the edge holds up under this extra stress.
