    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.

    Evening shave - twas nice and what the dr ordered.

    20/40 cotton/leather premium II
    hot water splash
    CM brush
    CM almond soap
    Turner and company sheffield wedge
    WTG/XTG/ATG not full passes - but for those little areas that require said stroke
    Nivea AS balm - soooooothing

    plus a head shave (partial straight - mostly disposable - still learning) - geesh - feel like a new man

    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.
