BADGERary 2, 2025 -- First Thursday of 2025 Edition

My very favorite razor: the Yates 921M on the face H on the dome. So sad to see the transfer of the brand from a family business in PA to who knows what. Best wishes to Jake and Ashley. Thanks for the awesome razors!

Arno 26mm, Mulan-1, 2-band badger, heliotrope stone

Based on the Oumo Tyrant, this hand-tied knot from Arno features soft and elastic bristles with a slight scratchiness. The density of the knot has been adjusted from the Oumo Tyrant, with the Mulan-1 being a bit denser than the Tyrant. This brush was part of a test batch and was released in 2024. The knot diameter is 26mm set at a loft of 53mm. It's an incredible performer and one of the best badgers in my rotation. When lathering, the knot blooms quite a bit and punches way above its "diameter class", a 24mm knot would have been sufficient, but the 26mm knot feels very luxurious nevertheless.
