Oops, didn’t have time to hone tonight, so another tuggy shave for me. That’s the price of being ill prepared for an AA challenge during a family vacation, I guess 😅.
The SOC still has a lot of backbone, and just eats lather up. But the tips are soft, so I see no major obstacle to a smooth bit of RawHogginy, and I have all the soap and patience required to break this pretty brush in.

That’s a very good looking setup for the month. Varen won’t be much of a sacrifice, nor will the Drakkant. The knot will be what it is, of course; a work in progress for as many shaves as it takes to become comfortable. Love the handle on that Zenith!

Thank you! No, so far it’s not been much of a sacrifice to use Varen and the Drakkant. The brush is still at full stank, but eventually that will go away too.
