Ok shave. Razor is not as sharp as it needs to be. I just really wanted to try it out. Canvas/leather 75/50. 2WTG, started 1XTG, but the wife wanted to take a picture of her pregnant belly. While asking me about it, she started in on how long shaving was taking, and that "You won't have that kind if time when the baby comes..." As I shut the door and resumed shaving I cut my lip. I decided to call it a night.

Again. Crappy BlackBerry pic. Sorry.

Prep: Hot face wash w/ CarrieM's Bath soap
Brush: Shavemac 23mm Silvertip
Strop: Merit Linen and SRD 3" Bridal
Shave Cream: CarrieM's Lilac
Razor: J.A. Henckels This one is a beauty!
AS: Lilac Vegetal

Results: Smooth as silk shaving and BBS face!

Prep>>Hot shower (no proraso pre shave cream tonight)
Razor>> Tried for the second time the Henckels 8/8 square point. This is a goliath of a blade....and I love it. Will skip the Friday night shave to try the Dorko 300 8/8 round point on Saturday night with a two day growth of stubble...just for the fun of it.
Stropping>>SRD Red latigo 30/30 plenty of draw on this blade. I gauge the difference between the first and second shave with this blade as I get the angle just spot on.
Soap>>Proraso soap in green tube. Wipped in bulldog mug. Boy, I love this mug from SRD!
Astringent>>Hog's Own.
AS>>Musgo Real.
Cologne>>Glogenhassen 4711

Footnote>>This was a very enjoyable shave. Achieving BBS and telling my bruthas at SOTD to SHAVE ON.
Background music>> ACDC Rock n roll ain't noise pollution.
Adult Drink>>Francis Coppola-Pinot Noir 2008

Now you KNOW that I love that new Avatar pic brotherman.
Also, keep a close eye on that brush, she has eyes for me.
