Quick report before my computer starts flailing about. I used Speick shaving soap and Speick aftershave, the brush being one of the Whipped Dog 22mm silvertips. Really excellent (and long-lasting) lather. I initially had some blade alignment problems, using SuperMax Platinum, but that settled down—had to press the blade well into the cap—and the shave was quite good. The HTGAM has a short, thick, hollow handle and the endcap can be unscrewed so you can add weight if you wish.
A really excellent shave, overall. And less than a week until I get my new computer.
