Friday November 14th, 2014.
Morning shave straight out of bed, no prep, cold water.
Bowl: Mushroom soup mug
Brush: Boar
Soap: L'occitane Cade
Razor: Wade&Butcher rattler
After: Pitralon classic
At last, a good shave with Cade... no cuts, no irritation, 3 passes.
Proraso|G5|Joe Badger|L'Occitane Cade|Wostenholm IXL|Clubman|Cade BalmThe wosty was perfect and provided a remarkable 3 pass shave using the Cade soap, finished by Clubman AS and some Cade balm. I think I have found the quintessential Friday shave! Clubman and Cade is a winning combo especially with SWMBO approval.

Thank you my friend, my first couple honing attempts on cheap razors were little disappointing. But this Puma is very good razor and the result is outstanding even if it took me more than six hours in total :)Quote:
