    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Cool Thursday and Friday Shaves - Test shaves

    Thursday and Friday Shaves - Test shaves

    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
    Thayers Lemon
    AS: Dominica Bay Rum & Pinaud Clubman
    HOG
