SOTD 1-7 August 2021

Battle of the French cool, loser banished to Con Dao island. The Leresche 77 is milder than people may imagine but plenty effective with a Feather blade. The Vib'Raz/Feather provides more feedback (handle just snug) so is more capable when it comes to pick ups. 77 wins on cool, Vib'Raz on shave magic. MDC

The brush, loaned to me by a very generous friend here, worked very well with the hard soap. It loaded easily and made excellent lather. Its backbone and flow-through felt medium, similar to an early Paladin or an M&F, and the hair tips were extremely soft, with none of the scritch I am used to feeling with my vintage Rooneys.
