  • Brush: Semogue Owner's Club (cherry wood and boar) (55)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 17 (NOS, 7/8", hollow ground, stainless steel)
  • Lather: Speick – Men
  • Post Shave: Mühle – Aloe Vera
  • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original Craftsman

Speick Men used to be my go-to soap as a fresh wetshaver with my Merkur 34C. After falling down the artisan products rabbit hole, I sorta forgot about it, but it's really good stuff and should be used up. It even still has some of its fresh scent left! Mühle splash with both alcohol and witch hazel is similar in that it's a great product with a nice, unobtrusive fragrance.
