    I was thinking a sweet, thin razor with a nice bevel for him to 'begin' with!

    Ok you Mamby Pamby chatty Cathy's.
    Chosera 1K
    100 on fire hose linen
    250 on boar leather
    Arko shave soap
    2 1/2 pass full shave 1st pass ATG, 1/2 WTG around my muzzle, 2nd pass XTG
    It was not a great shave. I have had rougher shaves before I really knew how assess my edges. I have to thank Geezer for the loupe and Catsrentshaving for showing me how to use it properly, and Glen for the videos and the challenge initially. Since then it has been practice practice practice. I can feel my face and say for absolute certainty, this was not a very close shave, but closer than I could get with a cartridge and much more irritation free, in fact the aftershave did not burn like I had expected.

    I have attempted this before and will join in for another go but will have to wait for the weekend to clean and hone up a razor.
