  • Prep: hot shower
  • Lather Bowl: Georgetown Pottery G12 Shaving Scuttle (Hamada & Blue)
  • Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
  • Razor: Razor name and then two spaces
  • Blade: Edwin Jagger DE 89L
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Leviathan - Shaving Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Leviathan - Aftershave Balm

I do enjoy using the scuttle, but I just can't seem to get as good a lather as when I'm face lathering. Still nice on a cold day though.
