An interlude in the series of shaves with MMN soaps to shave with the legendary Sebum soap in Haitian Vetiver version, send for rotation by a generous friend from the Spanish traditional shaving forum. To finish this fantastic shave I have used Sebum Gold oil, of the same brand but from a different aromatic line.

FAT Friday!
This old W&B 6/8th’s is weighted toe heavy. That combined with the tiny shank makes using the scything motion on this wedge super easy and natural. Also makes for an unreal smooth shave to boot.
