Tallow and Steel Kyoto soap and aftershave
Gillette Old Type
Nacet
APShaveCo SlikSmoke

Finally finished Kyoto and loved every second of it. (Why solesoap if it means constant moaning?)

As the tub got low, I've been using the SlilkSmoke brush as it does a great jog of getting the soap out of the tubs and I had luxurious creamy lathers all the way to the last shave today. It was actually nice to use the synth for a while. I'll admit it's a lathering beast if not as soft and scrubby as a good badger, it's ability to whip an amazing later out of next to nothing more than makes up for it.

I'm going to miss you old friend, my all time favorite soap. Thankfully I've got plenty of other T+S soap to go to now, including Yakushima.
