; 3rd run with the new brush, again early but I know this knot will probably become my favourite and along with the handle design there will be a ‘’culling’’ of the rotation. Lovely 2 pass n touch up shave, so smooth with the La Falux, (smoothest razor to date for me) and the ++ plate is really efficient YMMV. Finished with the ‘’dual’’ splash/moisturiser. Superb.
