Very nice composition in the photo! How was the "Sunset" ?
This Omega really suprised me. This is my first brush in pure that is almost black at the tips, and while the tips are nice and scritchy for the initial circular scrub, the brush is also very soft on the final painting pass I use to even out my lather. In short this brush lathered extrmely well and was a real pleasure to use....a A+ shave today.
Cheers, DJ.

The more pics I see of the PJ2, the more I have to restrain myself. Better wait until my Polo 8 gets here. But another brush wouldn't hurt me... Maybe Santa will get me one of these beauties :rolleyes: .

Mondial brush
Merkur HD with a Gillette of unknown origin
Williams shave soap
KMF Vanilla Earth
Alum block
Thayer's witch hazel
Neutrogena razor defense

I thought the Williams was at least worth a try, despite reading the mostly negative feedback about it. I gave up after the first pass and used the KMF as a brushless cream for passes two through four. It worked out fine in the end...no nicks and the least razor burn I've yet experienced.
