    Cool SOTD Oct 11

    Prep: Hot towel
    Strop: Paddle two sided on leather only
    Cream: TOBS Sandalwood
    Razors: Boker Edelweisse and Dovo Best Quality.
    Astringent: Thayers Aloe Vera and Lemon
    AS: Aqua Velva.

    A two razor shave day: Honed the Boker on the Norton 4K/8K and polished with the Naniwa 10K stone. Test shave half my face. SWEET JESUS! the whiskers melted away. Finished the other half with the DOVO which I had already honed. Can't get over the creaminess of the TOBS, a keeper for sure. SHAVE ON.

    Guys,

    the SOTD is rocking big time.

    I love what I see and so does everyone else.

    Keep those whiskers growing se we can mow them with our cherished straight razors.
