In memory of my friend Neil (thank you Obie, for the very nice and well put words!), who I miss deeply, may he rest in peace!
Prep: hot shower
Brush: Simpson Polo 8
Razor: Friodur
Soap: Tabac
AS: Myrsol
Result: very, very clean indeed
As usual I used a couple of Neils strops (and as usual, allways the carodvan one), such good work, made by an excellent crafts man!! You'll be missed, my friend!!

I don't think so, he was a good man and it's never wrong to pay your respects, I think.

A nice Sunday shaving stand shave with a Swedish frameback straight razor, a badger hair shaving brush, Col. Conk Bay Rum soap, Myrosol Aqua de Limón aftershave, jazz playing in the background and a Cooper's stout...
Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

Oh no, just saw that Neil Miller has passed on. :-(
Funny thing is the razor I used was restored by him and the strop I used was one of his. A loss of a fine craftsman....Last edited by carlmaloschneider; 07-12-2015 at 09:41 AM.
