    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.

    My very first shave with the Puma a very nice razor and the specialized toe which they have the patent on really does work, a fine shave from a very fine razor.

    You have far too many nice razors, that is another good looking blade... I need to stop looking
    Straight razor shaving is like motorcycling both require full attention and continuos learning and honing of skills...

    I can still enjoy looking at all the fabulous SOTD pics though. Keep posting, gentlemen.
    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
