    Steel-That Mappin is gorgeous, and I imagine that Koken Scotch Shell is smooth as glass. My own Scotch Shell might as well be cordovan it's so slick (not near as nice as yours, though!).

    Saturday shave of the day, and the week.
    Was on vacation so didn’t shave for 7 days.
    Needed some muscle today so went with the following;
    MdC Vetyver suds
    Pixelfixed custom ebony/ivory badger brush
    W Gilchrist in custom red horn
    Floid Orange.

    Thanks SHD! And you are spot on about the Koken. Smooth as glass. Koken made some doozies. They are as slick as water on ice. You’re lucky to have one!

    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one
