Tonight was Puma time..
I had dinged the blade and honed it up again..
Was a great Shave.. I didnt do a whole lot to get smooth as I had had it for today..removing 39 years of wall paper in the new room of my son..
So there we go
Shower
Lathered up with tabac (love that smell :p)
stropped the razor 10 laps on CrO, 30 on athletics tape (works great) 100 on leather
rinsed and lathered up again with my home made 22mm golden nib silvertip
One pass with the grain (found that the heel of the razor is not there yet but it shaves...
hot rinse
Lathered up
ATG on cheeks and neck XTG on chin and upperlip
hot rinse
brushed my teeth (almost put tabac on my toothbrush)
cold rinse and Sanex AS balm
not very smooth but comfortale shave..
I'll post a picture later. this week..
My favorite razor (this week)
W&B 6/8
BK12
Classic SC
Baxter of California AS
My shave on monday:
- Thäter 4411 brush
- Truefitt & Hill Luxury Soap
- Gloriawerk 4/8"
- TÜFF AS sensitive
- Davidoff Cool Water Edt
The Gloria Razor was in pretty bad condition when arrived from ebay. A friend of mine repaired the scales and honed it. It is now sharp as hell, and can easily compete with my Filarmonica in terms of sharpness.
Of course, the Fillie will always be my number one :)
