  • Brush: Zenith B2 26mm boar #HOLLOW #OLDWORLD
  • Razor: Tatara Masamune #CNC
  • Blade: Personna Egyptian Red
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Diamond (Excalibur base)
  • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Diamond Aftershave, Osma Alum
  • Fragrance: Imaginary Authors - Soft Lawn

There is nothing more spring than baseball. Diamond has an odd appeal to me. For one, I never liked playing baseball and I think the game is dry unless if’s Dodgers, naturally. This shave soap has nothing I would ever seek in a scent. I got it by a PIF from u/BVsaPike a few years back, and subsequently had the greatest shave I had experienced to date. This was the ware that got me going. It has been a dependable addition to my den, yet I am always suspicious as to how I ever find myself reaching for it. It is something I would never part with- and Mrs. RdtheDO craves popcorn when I wear it, which somehow oddly works out (possibly layering on the oddity).

Weight of razor plus blade: 88.1g

Weight of soap used: 1.4g

Volume of aftershave used: 2.5mL

Volume of cologne used: 0.3mL
