My first time with a Maggards soap. It wasn't bad at all. Crafters Choice preblend scent pretty straightforward, but I so happen to like the scent. Performance was fine, nothing that wowed me or anything, but definitely not bad. On the sweeter side of things, I opted to pair it with a darker barbershop, Batavia Barber. The leather plays in comfortably with the barbershop vibe.

I had been hanging on to this knot for a while, and noticed an opportunity to get another scavenger hunt item in. The bore in this brush is pretty deep, so I took this new Maggards Silvertip and set it nice and low. Maggard knots always feel fantastic. Nice shave today.
