Barbus Classic Shaving Cream
Barber Marmara No. 2 Aftershave
Zomchi Razor
Opus Brush

The star of this shave is the beautiful brush from Opus. I won this brush on the one year anniversary giveaway show on Bary Bedford’s YouTube channel, A Texan Shaves.

Thanks again Bary and congratulations on a second year (almost) of fabulous content!

Always a pleasure to use this big blade. Some people think the width must make it hard to use but that isn’t the case. Look at the width of your standard single or double edge. Probably not much difference. The heft is what actually stands out when using it which makes it easy to cut through tougher stubble. Wonderful shave today :)

Shavemac 2-band Silvertip Badger

Hey Jim - is that Cobra plated? I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in a gold tone before.
