Simpsons Colonel X2L
Wickham 1912 Russian Leather
Merkur Futur
Wilkinson Sword (England old stock) (2)
Lime witch hazel
Lynx Dark Temptation Aftershave

You know when you're using a Futur, it's really lets you know it's working with audible feedback and blade feel.
Two passes to see off a day and a half growth with ease
I still got lather fade in the Colonel despite not shaking so much water out but there was enough lather atop the bristles to get away without reloading.
I don't know what else to try to stop the lather dying in this brush. Any suggestions?
Lynx Dark Temptation to finish and job done.
