Monday Shave:
Prep: Cold water splash & leisurely lather
Razor: Otto Fromm 72R
Hone: Carbide pocket stone
Strop: Illinois 361 canvas & cowhide
Cream: AoS Unscented
Balm: AoS Unscented
Gave the razor a quick touch-up and had a hot Summertime cold-water two-pass shave. Always amazes me how the routine of shaving becomes luxurious by taking just a little bit more time to enjoy the process.
Have a wonderful week, gentlemen.
