  • Brush: Stirling 24mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Muhle R89
  • Blade: Personna 74 (31)
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Roam - Soap
  • Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Nefertiti - Aftershave

Very nice.

I find this razor to be a little bit "sticky" causing a bit of drag. The chrome plating on it is very nice and smooth. You would think this would help it slide across your skin easier, but I find the opposite to be true. If your face is a suction cup, a chrome plated razor is like a piece of glass, where a razor with a slightly rough surface would be like trying to stick a suction cup to cardboard. Anyway, enough pseudo-science for today. Have a good one!
