Razor: Wade and Butcher Masonic 7/8
Soap: K.D. Creations (CarrieM's) Lemongrass
Aftershave: Royall Lime
Brush: Shavemac
Strop: SRD 3" Bridal
The WB gave a very smooth shave and i have a soft spot for big blades
Joed and I both got a nice shave with only a little bite on me from human error. CarrieM's lemongrass smells just like lemon, its not too sweet and goes great with the Royall Lime.Last edited by JrJoeD; 05-09-2010 at 02:38 PM.

Brush: 22mm Fuller black with Butterscotch Marble restored by Prophetic Joe
Soap: Alraz's Pro Bomb
Razor: Heljestrand MK32 (kindly offered by a member and restored by Mr. Keyes)
Aftershave: Proraso
Result: Refreshing evening shave. The first time I shaved with the Heljestrand a couple of days it didn't live up to my expectations but I had a nice stropping session today and it's getting smoother the more I get into it. By the time I was going against the grain I had a nice session on my chin which usually provides more difficulty. Excellent shave.
