Thanks for that. I will try both Badger and Synthetic and see if there is an improvementWe have hardish water here in West Sussex but I find I can get a lather no problem using the Zenith synthetic, maybe a bristle is more difficult?
One thing I do find is the soap seems to stay on the skin well and has an oily feel to it. I’m not wild about the scent though which I find very mild. I prefer a stronger more lasting scent a la Extro Positano.
Lovely brush!SotD

Thanks, I'll look into the tapeI have a Durham but haven’t got around to using it yet but will now try using your method with the Feather blades.
I use Polimide Kapton insulation tape to help make some of my blade modifications more secure when the fit in the razor head is a wee bit shaky. It’s a bit belt and braces but can really help to stop blades going awol during a shave! Cheers Alan
Thank youLovely brush!
