Wednesday's Shave:
TIPTLE #152
Tony Miller Linen/SRD English Bridle
Omega Barberia Italiana Commemorative
Sir. Irisch Moos Shaving Stick
Booster's Mosswood Aftershave
After selling an espresso grinder, I had a little bit of money to spend. I picked up the TIPTLE from eBay, which was somewhat of a gamble due to the pitting. Well I received it yesterday, and honed through what minor pitting there was along the bevel out rather easily. I took it through my Naniwas then to my new coticule. The edge was very smooth and forgiving. Probably the best edge I've had yet (which isn't saying much)

Correct, the jar is Tabac sitting next to a ceramic jar inscribed with my initials given to me by Mrs. Hog, I have in it a puck of MWFS. I have about less than half left on the tube of Erasmic which I did not include in the picture. Originally Posted by tat2Ralfy

Thanks, man. Undream made those scales for me - they're a faux tortoise acrylic. There's a write up (and much better photos of his work) here. What you can't see in my photo is the wedge, which is black horn lined with brass. Brad does amazing stuff! Originally Posted by jhenry
