AOS silvertip badger
Trumper's Lime
11/16 vintage Solingen
TOBS Victorian Lime



Did 40-50 passes on the Zulu before stropping. Got a great, buttery edge and a comfortable shave. Drew blood for the first time in ages, though, after wandering up to an unstretched portion of the cheek.

Have a great week everyone.

Not happy with the shave. This is my tenth straight shave or so... Lots of redness in my neck... Chin and upper lip is still a problem.. .Need to wacht more videos I think...

Well, i asked myself if i have to blame the SRP for my addiction for Spike Point Razors, well, i came to the clue, theres nothing to blame but a big reason to thank you all here in the SRP!
Without all the influences from here i guess i wouldnt have give the Spike´s a second chance (my first shaves with these Razors a few Years ago had been terrible as can be) :-)
