Wednesday, 6.2.10

Pre Shave Oil based on the readings of Edgar Cayce
Hot Towel Treatment
Omega Shave Cream
Semogue 830 Boar
Bowdin's Wedge
Tony Miller Heirloom Strop 20 Linen/50 Leather
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
good ole' Pinaud Clubman

I'm not sure if the Pre shave Oil helps, but as they say, it sure can't hurt!
The little Wedge blade is deceptively efficient... It goes about it's business in abject silence.

Great shave to go out and break (hopefully) some clay birds!

Niffty to have a beard razor (I think it´s that anyway) for the head. Seems to make sense, how´s it working for you? I´ve been using, mostly, smaller (4/8 or 3/8 wedgies) razors for my head shaves ... But would love to hear what´s your experience with this is... Thanks Dr Ralfy!
