@120inna55: first off, your SOTD posts are always awesome. I don't use tallow products so unfortunately most of what you show is off the table for me but I still love seeing and reading about your set ups. I do have a question, I keep seeing you put (2) after your blades. So does this mean you actually stack two blades in your razor (which I have heard of before) or do you use two blades as in 1 for head and 1 for face?I only use a blade one time regardless of price because that has drastically cut down on bacterial pickup for me leading to small post shave white heads. Even when I used carts I would use them once and toss them so even feathers at a once and dump are still cheaper.
Awesome! I had a vdh boar that wasn't terrible for the price but my only complaint was it took about 1-2 months to break in then was used up and shedding like crazy by about month 9-10. It also took FOREVER to dry...I'm talking still damp by the next days shave. How do you like your vdh badger? If that one starts to fail you ever I highly suggest you check out the omega a brush series. They range from $6-$11 depending on size and dry in minutes, also they are sooo soft
