The little brushes
Here are the little guys, flanked by a couple of larger brushes for scale. From left to right: Simpsons Emperor 3 Super, Emperor 1 Super, Classic, Harvard 1 Best, yesterday’s Omega, and my old standby, the Rooney Style 2 Finest. According to hyperwarp in a comment on yesterday’s shave, he gets 4-5 passes worth of lather from his Simpsons Wee Scot.
And here is today’s shave. The Harvard 1 Best generated a lot of lather from Floris London JF shaving soap—certainly ample for 4 passes and maybe 5, though I did only three. The 1940′s Milord (i.e., gold-plated Super Speed) with a previously used Astra Keramik blade did a very nice shave indeed: easy and efficient, leaving my skin exceptionally smooth, with not a nick. The Floris JF aftershave finished me up in fine style.
