As I have acquired a bit of SBAD, I have just received from another forum member my new D01 24mm Shavemac. Here is a photo next to my semi-custom 23mm Shavemac and 20mm Grandfather restore.
I have done two shaves with it so far (MWF and DR Harris) and I am still learning how to properly load this huge mushroom
As of now I really love the gel like feel of the D01 hair. I can't wait to perfect this one.

You could scrub a dead rat's head on a tub of Cella and get good lather.

I had Rudy put a D01 3 band in a custom handle, and it is excellent.

I really love many of the Shavemac brushes. I think my next brush will be a custom (once I lose a bit of wife aggro).
