First Friodur Frolic
shower Classic Sweetgrass soap
Conditioner pre-shave in shower
Hot towel
Vulvix Lavendar cream
Henckels Friodur 5/8 (first shave after a little battle honing). Two passes were very nice. I forgot to dull the point so I got a tiny nick from it. This razor seems to be of very nice utilitarian quality. I doubt this steel will ever stain; which is a real nice feature. I would probably take this razor on the road with me in a larger size. Probably a good barber's razor too. I will be selling this one though to get a 7/8 from Tony.
