Old school with modern look
"Never used an old school razor before and I'm happy with this investment. It may not get as close as a shave like a 5 blade Gillette razor, but my face doesn't get razor burn. I only nicked myself once so far and that was by my ear I was careless. I use a preshave oil and I use a nice sandlewood soap that lathers up nice on my shaving brush. I washed my brush with mild shampoo a couple of times before first shave and no foul odor coming off it. I get one of the most comfortable shaves outside a professional barber"
