An absolutely fabulous lather from the soap whip-up nicely by the brush. Creamy, slick, cooling, and a good scent with a matching splash. An enjoyable shave with this excellent razor strop on buffalo leather! Smooth, easy, and comfortable in 3passes for a bbs-ccs finish with 2 red spots...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another fantastic shave this morning! Was in the mood for an old school Old Spice shave this morning so I went back to "Old Goat" by Cooper & French. This has become my favorite Old Spice scented soap. The scent to my nose is closer to the Shulton formula than anything else I've used. Great lather too! Two passes + touch-up and I finished with a splash of Shulton "Old Spice" and a spray of P&G "Old spice" EdC.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Nice enough soap, brush & splash combination.
The razor was refreshed on the Naniwa 12k then strop on the buffalo leather. The edge feels abit better...crispier but still smooth. 3 enjoyable passes without issues for a dfs-ccs finish...
