    The 3K Shave!

    Razor: J.A.Hellberg, "Söderfors Extra Specialstål" Eskilstuna - 9/16" - FH

    The vendor said it was "shave ready", honed on a Naniwa Pro 3K and then stropped on buffalo leather.
    Anyway I decided to test it... The shave could be better of course... but much worse too! No cuts, no nicks & no skin burns!

    Awesome morning shave.

    Wifey was off, so I used one of her favorites - “Wave”.

    Always an incredible slickness and scent.

    And I lathered with my freshly cleaned, and super fluffy, WCS brush.

    Went with the trusty Koraat.

    What a good combination.

    Strutting out of the shave den like A BOSS!

    Straight: Koraat 14-2.0 (custom shortened)
    DE: Carbon Shaving CX-316L (head shave)
    Lather: B& M Reserve “Waves”
    Balm: Wholly Kaw “Bare Naked” (unscented)
    Splash: B&M Reserve “Waves”
    Brush: WCS Beacon (Silvertip)
    Bowl: Captains Choice (large)
