Rotating through the DD's w/ JrJoed
Prep: Hot shower
Strop: SRD's Bridal
Shave Soap: De Vergulde Hand
Brush: C&E Super Badger
Razor: Dubl Duck Wonderedge
Cologne: Blade Suede
The Bridal strop and De Vergulde Hand shave soap are outstanding. The Bridal Strop is a pleasure to use and brings the edge to it's peak. The De Vergulde Hand ss has a subtle sent that is very pleasing. thick rich lather and great glide. The blade speaks for itself. The brush is OK but a bit large for my taste.

Note: the green pad on the sink is a silicone pot holder we use to keep the sink from drawing the heat out of the scuttle/lather, which is not picturedLast edited by Joed; 12-13-2009 at 10:37 AM.
