@Blademonkey - it seemed slightly slicker during the shave (fantastic glide), but I didn't get a good a residual slickness as my best bovine tallow soaps; but then again, it was my first use, so still dialing it in. Very impressive for a first use.

Thankyou for your reply.

Thank you Pat, appreciate it. Funnily enough I was tempted to ask how you were getting on with 'The Duke'. Good to hear you are still happy with it.

Have a good day.
Cheers

Razor: Merkur 34c
Blade: Voskhod (2nd use)
Brush: Molten Brown Shaving Brush

Brush: J&T® bamboo / Tuxedo synthetic 24 mm
and J&T® black walnut / Maggard synthetic 24 mm.
Shaving soap: Bon Berger Menthe stick (grated).
Razor: Maggard Slant / MR14 handle.
Blade: Lord Super Stainless (5).
After shave: Arko Men Cool after shave cream.

Compared the two knots today.
The differences are very small:
The tips of the Tuxedo are slightly softer, the Maggard has a little bit more backbone.
But as said: VERY small differences ....

S.O.T.D Thu 8 June (PM)

Prep: Hot Shower
Brush: RazzoRock 24mm synthetic
Soap: Cella
Bowl: Captains Choice large lather bowl
Razor: Merkur 34HD
Blade: Treet Durasharp #3
Post Shave: Fine American Blend Aftershave

Since 1899? There is a reason why they are still in business making soaps!
A fantastic classic soap, lovely scent. Lots of cushion on the lather, great quality at a good price point.
Both razor, soap and brush came together brilliantly for a great shave.
