That straight looks so good. Edge looks nice!
Zenith make some fantastic brushes too.

You can mourn that it will be no more, or enjoy what you have.

Since purchasing a couple zenith boars I haven’t used a badger - 15 + months ago. These zenith boars are brilliant. Edge on this w&b is awesome, absolutely plowed through about 4 days growth with 0 irritation and almost no feedback from alum.

#12 - Stroppe Shop, Black Tie
Alpha shaving, Outlaw titanium
Blackland Dart + Astra

I've yet to decide whether I like the Dart or not. I've tried a few different blades with it, but each time I'm not loving the amount of blade feel and therefore the "efficiency". Will continue the search the right combo though. I welcome suggestions.
