Brush: Muhle badger
Razors: Gebruder Hoppe Solingen 6/8 + Weltmeister 224 3/8

I tuned up the Hoppe on a coticule this weekend and it feels smoother now, I still need to improve the hone on the Weltmeister as it was still a bit blunt.

Location, 52° 45' 55.10460 - 0° 57' 31.22065
Beard Prep: Hot Shower/Conditioner
Razor: Vintage Gust.Haker 5/8
Strop: Dovo Linen/leather
Brush: Kent Pure Badger
Soap: Erasmic Puck
Astringent: Alum block
AS: Nivea balm/Diesel fuel for life
Result: Bbs, but a little warm here and there, very slight nick from a hesitation.
Conclusion: Mmm I lathered on my face instead of my bowl, and used a soap I haven't tried in ages, I think this lead to the slight afterburn, I will get some Erasmic cream and use my faithful Kaufmann Razor for a future shave
