No, I'm not sad, sometimes my jokes are VERY 'in' jokes, as in only I get them...Which is a bit pointless really. However, it is good to cheer one's self up once in a while...

That was one effortless shave!

I had heavy stubble (for me), but the Max Sprecher razor cut through it without much fuss and the Rod Neep brush prepared the face together with Jabonmans soap and Neil Millers strops took the edge back on the razor

Soap - MWF
Brush - Muhle XL synthetic silver tip
Strop - Neil Miller 3 inch Cordovan leather/English linen
Razor - Brookes & Crooks near wedge
