  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Brownstone 26mm V29 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Atelier Durdan Horizon (setting: 3)
  • Blade: Feather Artist Club Professional (1)
  • Lather: Floris London - No. 89 - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
  • Aftershave: Floris London - No. 89 - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Floris of London - No. 89 - Eau de Toilette

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This was my first use of the Horizon passaround razor. Settings go from 1 to 9 so I started at 3 to see what's what. Not mild at all! Can't wait to see what 7 is like. The razor is heavy and the head is large to accommodate the adjustment mechanism. The ability to tailor your exact blade exposure for an AC razor is very interesting, and the design is clever.
