This Valet brush is a pretty harsh old boar.
The soap seems to lack the slickness it used to have. Is that thing? Does soap loose it's slickness over time?
The Feather blade seemed not so sharp and pretty harsh on it's first use.
The razor with the closed comb is pretty mild and I found myself going over areas several times.
That said, I enjoyed the shave, it was a vintage SE shave after all
Feather spineless blades are garbage IMO.
Shave with a very shallow angle, just like a GEM, Ever~Ready, etc.
Vintage Williams stays slick forever, never used Valet. (never even seen one before)
Why do the posts stack up that way, how do I prevent that?

Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
