Sunday shave
5+ (who's counting) days' beard
Omega boar
CADE cream (POS lottery)
Trumper's Violet soap
Vintage Russia Shell Select etc.
RW custom
Trumper's alum
Trumper's CSF
Enjoyed this shave
Still amazed by the RW
CADE cream is hit or miss - may or may not lather. I happened to get the POS product - but luckily was aware of the danger (thanks to B&B) and just got a sample. Definitely ask for a sample before you buy!
Trumper's violet soap is not my favorite, but was still miles above this CADE cream. (The CADE soap is better than the T's Violet, fwiw)
Been playing with the boars, just to re-evaluate the Plisson HMW. Gotta give it to the Omega - if used well it will serve one very well, indeed, unless a crappy cream is used. And it looks way better than the Burma boar dog (which performs the same or even better, imo)
Cheers
