I just have to say that I love the number of pictures in SOTD this week. Last week was a bit of a letdown, but this week more than makes up for it already.

Prep: Splash with hot water.
Brush: Edwin Jagger standard badger brush (Thanks Drew!!)
Soap: A sample soap Drew sent me, I don't know what it is, works good though.
Strop: The Filly
Razor: 6/8 Worcester 1/2 hollow Razor
Result : BBS, great shave, small nick on the neck. I used a campbells soup mug because the bowl I have annoys me with soap because it always goes up the side and sence I havn't gotten my Old Spice mug that I want this is the only one I could find to use.

Just restored this 5/8 oldy but goody one using the original scales. It was a challenge..but man it is worth the shave!. I still am an advocate of the AOS sandlewood line. If anyone want to turn me on to a better one let me know. Thanks

Glad to hear it's all going well Zach. I like the soup mug, I vote stick with it.

Every time I see the work of our very own Max it makes me wish I had a big box of razors and a big box of money to send his way.
Hat's off, you do some gorgeous work.
