December 2018 Acquisitions

Just arrived today from across the pond. An outstanding replacement walnut handle for my Schick G1, and Jayaruh #289 brush made by Jim Roe aka Jayaruh, along with a cake of Williams mug soap.

A Wonderful assortment of brilliantness...I've only recently over the last few months re-introduced myself to Williams..I've found a five minute soak in hot water, then rubbed directly into my stubble, like a shave stick then loaded up with a damp synthetic brush, has created a wonderful protective lather, adding water to the brush in-between each pass,,Superb stuff..That brush is a cracker!.Regards B. :)

Thank you. The razor and brush will be treasured as they are now quite unique. The Williams is work in progress, as my results so far have been average.

Effort and patience are required with the williams, I find once you get passed the airy / bubbly stage your rewarded with a more than average slick lather...The razor & brush are something to be treasured.
