I like that brush handle. That little pipe detail is wonderful

Thursday, February 13, 2025: Atlas Shaves 2 - Day 13
- Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations "Stardust" - TurnNShave 26mm shoat
- Razor: Yates Precision Manufacturing - 921-M

Easy lather with the DG bison base, though after almost a week of GEM shaves I felt like I had to work harder with the 921-M. Great results in the end though.
I can tell I will get along well with this shoat knot. It's still a little poky and needs breaking in, but it already felt great.
+4 points for soap from the same artisan

YRP! Second soap match of these Atlas Shaves for me, and a favourite of mine for warmer weather. Today is a rainy winter day in the Lake Geneva area, but with YRP I'll just pretend happily.

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Olympus is one of those fragrances that provides a light, airy, feeling that rides over a warm base that has a touch of spice. Very well blended. Although I'm posting late, this was a great way to start my day.
