June 03, 2024 – Lather Games! Head Shaves
- Brush: Custom Irish Bog Oak Handle w/ 30mm Synthetic Knot #TOLL
- Razor: Leaf Shave Co. – Leaf Razor #ZAMAC
- Blade: Durablade Sharp Titanium (8)
- Lather: Purely Skinful Handmade Essentials – Palo Santo
- Aftershave: Clubman Pinaud – Classic Vanilla After Shave Lotion
I needed a quick head shave, so the Leaf stepped in to fit the bill here. Palo Santo is a splendid soap with a light, airy and pleasant scent. This is a deer tallow shave soap, and like other offerings by by Purely Skinful it is also sadly discontinued.

Oh, and in moment of curiosity I grabbed the verniers and measured the loft on my custom bog oak shave brush: it comes in at a hair over ~64mm installed, thus qualifying for the hardware hashtag. Yay!!
Good times, and a great shave! (The half-blades are now retired for recycling.)
