Flawless shave.
Nice looking shave, TobyC! Love that green baton handle and also love the brush! Is the boar knot original?
How does the shave compare between the Treet w/ baton handle vs. the Gem Jr. w/ baton handle or any of the other closed comb 1912 style razor? Is the solid bar on the Treet unique to the 1912 style razors?
The boar is original, and in my opinion they are the best brushes ever made if you like scrub and scritch. If you like soft and painty they ain't fer you!
They shave like a '12, I can't tell any difference. '12 style? how far can you go before it's not? Look at the top of a Featherweight or a Heavy Flat Top and what do you see? I see '12 style. The blade shaves, the razor is just a handle.
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
