Razor and Brush

BelovedAunt

Hey lads, I've been using a DE89 and this brush for the past few years: http://www.shaving.ie/products/black-silvertip-special.html

I also used an R41 about 10 times but found it too aggressive.

I'm looking to upgrade to a better blade and brush and just wondering what you would recommend. My budget is around €100 for each item. Thanks.

And this Razor,

I would pass on a Muehl. They are beauty over function. For a brush exactly the way you want it I would look to here:

Or just get:
