    Thursday evening
    Hot water prep
    Ed Wusthof razor - New Forest badger brush - Coate's shaving cream - cold water splash - Thayer's rose resplash - Proraso green tea & oat balm - Lorenzo Villoresi "Uomo" sampler EdT


    A perfect shave. Touched up the blade on a water Coticule, followed by a water Thuringer stone. A few laps on red and multiple laps on bare leather. Two passes to perfect smoothness. The iPhone played Arkology Reel 1 from Lee (scratch) Perry in the background, which gave a nice slow vibe to the whole thing.
    This was the kit that had been away from home for a while. Glad it still works charms once back in the den.
    My weekend starts here gents! I'm taking a long one.

    Proraso Preshave
    L'Occitane Cade Shaving Soap
    Simpsons Commodore Brush
    L"Occitane Cade ASB
    DOVO 6/8 Razor

    The best part of the shave was the new puck of Cade. Enough time has passed that I forgot how great this soap is for lather. I touched up the DOVO on the Chinese polishing stone which was not such a great idea. The edge went down hill. Good enough for a quick shave though.
