Cold water shave
Brush: WSP Badger
Razor: Gold Dollar 208 fresh off the hones, finished with Chinese hone of indeterminate grit
Shaving cream: Col. Conk's Bay Rum
After Shave: Captain's Choice Bay Rum
Somehow this thing always ends up as the sharpest blade in my little collection. Maybe that's because I use it to test techniques and practice honing?

Thanks, Guys!"Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
I rest my case.

Forgot how much I miss my W&B 's . Fine India steel wedge I rescaled a few years ago. Outstanding shave with one of my favorite scent. Spanish fig and nutmeg. Out of a scrappy morning at least my shave was wonderful.
