Started off with one blade only to discover it needed some touching up on a hone and or a lot of stropping, so I had to go back a trusty blade. So this is what I ended up with:
Joseph Rodgers &Sons 13/16th's in Bloodwood.
Crab Tree and Evelyn NOMAD
Shaveden West Indian Sandalwood After Shave Milk
Freshly Pumiced 3 wide black Latigo strop.
Good shave, but interrupted by my toddler and ended up slicing into my index finger.
I've had better shaves....next time I'll make sure to shave before family is up and about.
Cheers
