Another year's supply of Wilkinson Light Brigade blades.

John, that's an interesting haul. How do you like them? I'm assuming you do, lol, I just want to know how they perform.

Hector, I've tried many blades, both vintage and modern, and for me the Light Brigades are clearly the best combination of smoothness, sharpness, and durability in my Feather AS-D2, giving me consistently wonderful shaves.

Nice, thanks! I understand the feeling when finding that nice blade/razor combination. Enjoy! With the AS-D2 I use Feather blades and it is is the only razor I use Feather with. For some reason is the only combo in which the Feather blade performs like a charm.

Waiting for arrival of my Fine Lathering Bowl & SDP Agrume SS + Matching ASB!

Arrived in 11 days..

Rounding out my Chatillon Lux library with another round of customs [less witch hazel/glycerin + menthol].

Bon Vivant, Champs de Lavande and a straight up custom called Sonoma Valley that hawns is putting together with some Neroli/Bergamot/Petitgrain, Jasmine, Honeysuckle, Eucalyptus.

Thanks to the generosity of another wet shaver, I picked up a couple Penhaligon's bowls for my vintage soaps.
