    Great photo, even though the Iwasaki razor is the predominant subject in the shot, the complete photo has a Japanese feel to it almost as if your looking at Japanese text ( kanji )

    How far does the edge continue along the bottom? Past where the shoulder would normally be?

    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.
