Comments: First time I am using this razor as it arrived yesterday from Sham. At the moment this is my favourite width and point, 6/8 spike point. Again, I just have to say that I am completely in love with the Knize 10, it is unbelievable good, a perfect subtle scent for my taste. Also, the sandalwood skin food has slipped in as a favourite. I had first tried the Taylor’s sandalwood which is a much stronger scent, however this skin food really grows on you and the results in terms of moisturizing without any stickyness is the best I have had bar none. Today was not a bbs because I am concentrating heavily on my cross grain before I return again to against the grain. This leaves out some areas but once I put the two together I know I’m gonna get some good results. It still takes me 40 mins to shave hence taking it slowly, one step at a time. Cheers guys. Oh and question I know some of use phone cameras with great results, the others that are doing close ups do you use macro lens or zoom in and crop in photoshop? Thanks!

Tuesday's Shave:
Pre-shave: AOS Oil
A/S: Vegatal chased up with the AOS
Razor: Old Wade & Butcher Fuax Frame Back (pretty decent shave for a Faux)

Razor: Schuzle "Da Pizza box" Orginal
Brush: Simpson c3 bb
Lather: Lea M
Aftershave: Cap't Smith's Lime Bay Rum

Well, I haven't shaved with my big Schuzle in awhile, and I keep it smeared in camellia oil. A little too much I guess, because when a took her out tonight I noticed that the oil had dripped onto the bone scales. I now have a large "grease mark" on both scales, and the Schulze will now carry the nickname of "da pizza box." I probably will have to soak the scales in camellia oil to rid my Schulze of the the pizza box look. Does sound like a winner or a loser of an idea, bruthas?
