SOTD : Saturday 25th April - Friday 01 May 2020

For this evening I decided that a fitting theme would be 'England expects every man to do his duty........and have a shave'

Pre Shave - Bath W/ Imperial Leather Soap
Soap - Wickham 1912 Russian Leather
Brush - Simpson Trafalgar T3 26mm Synth
Razor - Rockwell 6C R3
Blade - Gillette Platinum (1)
Post Shave - Vitos Tobacco ASL

My first use of the Simpson T3 Synthetic
Looking at it's 26mm knot with 50mm loft, I thought it might be a bit stiff - but it was the complete opposite.
Very soft tips and just the right amount of backbone for my liking
It builds and retains lather very well, and it was a pleasure to use.
My usual preference is for 24mm knots with a bit more loft, but this little brush suits me just fine, and I can see it getting a fair amount of use (my YaqI synth's might be set aside for a spell)
