My "everyman's" shave today, using inexpensive products without peer. Namely the Palmolive soap and AV splash. Quite enjoyable! As an aside, today was my first "open air" photo of the season ... I haven't decided whether I'm relatively happy with it or not ..

Enjoy the week, gents!

Results... The razor took a couple of tries to get the honing right, but after a second go at it and figuring out that a second piece of tape was all it needed the razor was a pleasure to use and left me with a BBS shave.
