A pretty normal shave. Been a while since I've posted one of these.

But the blade needs to be sharpened.

Hot Shower
Williams Mug Soap + cheap brush
Tony Miller Leather Strop
Filarmonica (still in desperate need of new scales)
Caribbean Bay Rum Lime after shave lotion

A good shave. Someday I hope to have a kit worthy of the kinds of photographs you guys are taking! Great stuff!

No time for a pic today, but still in...

Used my new Moss scuttle for the first time, and it was really nice... I think it's the winner of my hunt for the best scuttle (tried a couple of GTPs and a DB)

Soap: Mama Bear Aged Spice in my Granddad's shave mug.

Alex made this one for me after my specs, and "by god" did he deliver, all I wanted and more. It's such a sweet shaver, and the workmanship and eye for detail, clearly, at least for me, is a new benchmark. Kudos.
