Just an okay shave today. I think the razor is in need of a touch-up, but still more satisfactory than the newfangled cartridges. Recycled photo.

Recently rescaled , polished , and sharpened Frederick Reynolds wedge . 1st attempt at wedge sharpening. Didn't feel like the sharpest razor I've used but shaved very close with no nics or weeping.

David, I hope you'll feel better soon! A trapped nerve is no fun!
I very much agree, but the 'stop looking' part is a difficult one for me, I must admit...
My own shave today was a fast one:
Musgo Basil & Lime glycerine soap for the face wash
Sapone di Barba vegetale alla Mandorla shave soap
Mühle Basic Nr. 02 shave brush in horn imitate & 21mm STF
Merkur 11C open comb
KAI stainless blade (3.)
Bloc Osma alum
Musgo Real Classic after shave
Wishing all of you a pleasant weekend!

Smoothy, exactly my complaint, Jamie rolls out one great razor after the next, I am already in the "one more razor..." domain with SWMBO, hence my comments
Straight razor shaving is like motorcycling both require full attention and continuos learning and honing of skills...
