Aramis shaving soap/eyedropper full of glycerin
Vie-Long (horsey)
Aramis aftershave



This razor came from my shaving brother from another mother Tom. He told me its a real shaving machine & no need for a stropping. Normally I strop a razor regardless to those claims, but this time I passed on it. As Tom said no need. Its a shaver that you just have to let gravity glide down your face in 1 pass and voila whisker wasteland.
Having used the Amamis shampoo, shaving soap, and aftershave my whole house smells like Aramis heaven. Love, love, love this stuff however the shaving soap needs a ton of glycerin to produce any worth wild lather. But its worth the extra time & effort for that spectacular aroma.

Razor – Swedish KIFA - wedge
Brush – Pixelfixed custom boar
Soap – Green Mountain- Cheaha
AS – ALUM & Mrysol Balsam water

Autoclavable razor with brass scales for hospital use. PITA hard Swedish steel in a wedge profile. Shave was smooth but needs more work at the heel. Have just the stone for the job. Stay clean shaven!

The Day? foggy and very mild. The Shave? First shave after the hones...sharp, but needs a bit of tempering for comfort. Time for the Thuringian! The rest of the players made it a great shave!
The French razor came in a trade from Ankara, Turkey.
