Artisan Appreciation
January 11, 2024
Use as many artisan and/or collab products as possible. Both software and hardware encouraged.

Interesting metric, this. I won't pretend that the software products today harmonize well, but they do rack up quite the artisan count and I got a good shave. Depending on whether you accept the Gem Cutlery Company and Pinaud Clubman as artisans, I get to between 10 and 12 artisans:

  1. Chisel and Hound
  2. Zenith
  3. u/EldrormR
  4. Gem Cutlery Company
  5. Summer Break Soaps
  6. London Razors
  7. Z*&£#
  8. Barrister and Mann
  9. House of Mammoth
  10. Noble Otter
  11. Declaration Grooming
  12. Pinaud Clubman
