What's your "Go To" setup?

I'm curious. Barrister_N_Mann, by "prototype" Glissant do you mean the original Le Grande Chypre version with almond oil?

I took him to mean Cheshire, Seville, Lavanille, etc.

Razor: OneBlade
Blade: Feather FHS
Brush: Stirling Kong
Soap: I have 3 Stirling soaps in rotation, swap every day..., Barbershop, Sharp Dressed Man, Bay Rum.
AS: Stirling aftershave balms to match the above soaps.
Bowl: Dirty Bird Pottery "Bill Bowl."


I'm hoping the DFS brush will become my go to brush.

My bad, that makes a lot more sense. Long day, sorry .

What Hobbyist said.

Except for Tuesday which I have renamed to Tobacday, I don't have a go-to setup. Every new day is a new adventure in shaving. If I have time, I'll select whichever straight razor strikes my fancy at that moment. If I'm in a hurry I do the same with the safety razors. The soap and AS depends a lot on the state of the weather. If it's cloudy I'm likely to go earthy and dark, if it's sunny I may choose something citrus and light. I've simply ended up with too much great stuff to play favorites. Eventually they all get their turn because I really don't own anything I don't like. That is, after all, the key to happiness. It's not having everything you want, it's wanting everything you have.

That is, after all, the key to happiness.  It's not having everything you want, it's wanting everything you have.

Well said indeed!

Looking forward to those Barrister_N_Mann! Seville is one of my favorite scents from your original line. Brilliant composition.

Well said Uzi! I am to the point now where I want everything I have.

I have a relatively small setup, so cycling isn't really much of an option. For comparison sake, I'll post my list below:

Rockwell 6S on R3
Rockwell Swedish Stainless Blade (seriously digging these, you need to try them)
Striling Anything, but namely Ozark Mountian
Proraso Green Preshave
Ozark Mountain AS Splash
Whipped Dog Übersoft Synthetic

Yes indeed! Seville any time. The idea of Seville in Glissant gets me all hot and bothered. :-)
