    Default Second Lap

    CV Heljestrand MK No 32 "Eskilstunaboden"
    Semogue 2009 LE #28
    Origins Easy Slider
    Yardley Shaving Soap
    Thayer's Witch Hazel w/ Aloe
    L'Occitane Cade Balm

    same setup as last shave, much improved. Erased the bevel on glass, taped the spine and took it through the progression. Finished with 100+ laps on newspaper. I'd say the bevel is damn close to perfect but with plenty of room for improvement. Very close and comfortable!
    I even shaved the back of my neck with it, a first for me.

    this evening:

    7/8 Wade & Butcher "Barbers Rattler"
    loom strop
    body works synthetic brush
    Mitchell Wool Fat soap
    Alum block
    Masters Bay Rum a/s

    3 passes, bbs. This was the first time I'd tried MWF and found that the scent was much better than I'd heard described, it lathered quite well, and it left my face feeling quite nice. It could quickly become a favorite soap.
