I bought a new brush from Yaqi, which arrived yesterday. It is really beautiful, and the photos don’t really do it justice (there is a chattoyance in the blue part that doesn’t come out in the photos I have seen). The only thing I slightly dislike is that it gets quite slippery when covered with soap – which happens easily, because the handle is rather short. And, yes, I dropped it, thanks for asking.
I also honed the Koraat yesterday, and just as with the Puma, I did a quite decent job.
Have a good day!
PS: Not participating in the Atlas shaves; I have none of the artisans (and even less the precise soap) up to now, and I guess that it will stay that way.

No pictures of the brush!? 🧐
Better pics than I could have made:

Nice, that’s a good looking handle!
