First 'Complete' Straight Shave...
Today was a special SOTD for me...my first 'complete' straight razor shave!
Here's the tool of beard devastation from MSondoval858 (thanks Mike!):
30 passes on the strop plus...
* C&E Best Brush
* Derby Lavender Cream
* C&E Nomad After Shave Balm
Not a bad shave...here's my review:
* Was it as close as my Merkur HD or Progress?...Not yet!
* Did I cut my throat?...Nope...just a couple of weepers
* Am I intrigued?...Yuppers!
* Have I turned to the 'Dark Side'?...Ummmm...maybe...partially!Last edited by Rhino; 09-08-2007 at 05:52 PM.

Nice one! You'll beat those DE shaves eventually.
Dark Side? That would be Gillette surely?
