It is nice to start the day with a BBS from an old razor that one has saved from someone's junk-drawer, cleaned and honed to a wicked sharp edge.

Nice treat today.
Filarmonica #13 Medallon Taurino "Rejoneo"
Simpson Polo 8
Origins Easy Slider
Penhaligon's English Fern
Anonymous alum block
Thayers WHWA
444 + Aveda Aftershave balm
result: haven't felt this smooth in a while. Had some help from Bill Evans. Will be using the English Fern for a while, to rotate through my brushes and sell off the stragglers. It's nice to starting finding a groove with this stuff.
