The Omega R&B boar brush did an excellent job today, with a generous and creamy lather from Mickey Lee’s The Drunken Goat.
I just received this Wolfman Razor, the WR1-SB – Standard/Safety Bar. (It strikes me that we are seeing quite a few new razors and new razor manufactures. That has to be due to increasing demand.) Shawnsel should note that I rate this razor as very comfortable and very efficient (which is my highest performance rating).
I loaded the razor with a Voskhod blade, and the shave was really excellent: not just the final result (BBS), but also the experience during the shave. I like the handle, too: a break from the ubiquitous diamond chequering that everyone uses, and with grippy and comfortable.
I’m tempted to try the asymmetric model, but I think I’ll take it as read that Wolfman razors are top drawer.
The aftershave is Arko Gel, and while it is very pleasant, it’s nothing to seek out. Of course, with fragrances there’s quite a bit of YMMV.
TL;DR: Great razor. Glad I got it.
