If you don't mind me asking, where did you source the fan (or flat top?) Tuxedo knot?

Head and face shave
Bowl lather Giles Shaving Bowl
Leaf (Astra SP 4) Head
Blackland Vector (Feather Pro Super 6) Face
Yaqi Aqua HMW
MWF
Tabac AS
L'Occitane Balm
The Feather Pro Super blade is smoothing out in the Vector at last, once it’s served it purpose I’ll
be going back to my favourite AC blade the Schick Proline. Smoother from the off but not quite as long lasting as the Feathers in my experience.

Nearing Halloween and so a follow up to the other night with a shave themed, 'Shave out of Hell'
One hell of a razor - Ikon B1
A blade from hell - Polsilver Lodz
Hellish brush - Wee Whiskey Barrel
Buggery hell - Signature Novus Spice
'My God, is the best the supernatural throw up? A haunted pint of milk?'
Press play and sing along
The wife is screaming, and the blade is burning
Way down in the sink tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a brush in his hand..........
.......
.......
......
Whoaaaaa!
Whoaaaaa!
Hold it right there and stop this nonsense.
You have tortured the poor souls reading this garbage enough this week, so just don't go any further. Stop!
And the shave
A bunch of tried tested and well proven long term friends what else could ever be the expectation? Perfection and big grin value delivered in a smooth and inoffensive manner. In fact....fucking brilliant.
Have a most wonderful night, day, tomorrow, yesterday, last week or whatever. But do have some of those girlies from Japan to go with it.....Have some Beaver
Like a shave out of hell, hair'll be gone when the water's gone
When the lather is over, like a shave out of hell
Hair'll be gone, gone, gone.................
Etc

Brush • Yaqi 24mm Tuxedo Red Marble
Razor • Razorock Hawk V3
Blade • Feather Professional (4)
Post • Pinaud Clubman Aftershave
A cracking shave, sadly marred by suffering with the dreaded lurgie that is Man Flu (which is deadly to women)
Feather Pro blade smooth as silk, aided by superb Cosmo lather.

Ganders Goat Soap w/Hop, Sage & Birch
Wickham's 1912 English Rose Shaving Soap & Razorock 400 Butterscotch w/HJM Professional Boar 25mm
GEM Damaskeene & GEM by Personna (2)
Rose of Bulgaria Aftershave
Reasonably late Damaskeene, probably just prior to the 1919 release of the 1912. Curved cap. Best design from the outset.

Regarding the flat-topped Tuxedo.
Haha! I thought it was just that you'd smushed it into your face so much it had flattened out
