Thursday and Friday Shaves
Preamble: I had an itch to hone the Dovo Best Quality in my new set of Naniwas grits 3K,5K,8K and 10K using a pyramid honing technique....to test the result, I test shaved for two consecutive days with the Dovo. The sharpness was improved exponentially, no pulling at all and achieved BBS shave the second time around.
Shaving creams: Erasmic & T&H 1805. Boy the English know how to make shaving creams!!
Brush: SRD silver tip badger #3
