I haven't been on for a while because my computer sh*t the bed. So here I am, and I have to say that this morning I had the greatest shave to date. I was luscious. No nicks, no razor burns, no bumps. Only deliciousness. I've been trying to think of anything I may have done different. Maybe it was the week and a half I didn't shave and I think my stropping technique has gotten better so maybe that's part of it. Who knows? I'm happy though.

The razor was my DOVO 5/8" ebony spike point, with a lather of TOBS Rose that was whipped up by my Vulfix 406 Best Badger. I've been getting used to some Ogallala Bay Rum cologne I picked up recently; today was the first day I used the aftershave and the cologne together. Maybe that had something to do with it......

All in all, I'm delighted at the shave I got today. Can't wait to shave again and see how it turns out.
