Thread: SOTD - Sun June 20th - Sat June 26th

Looks like you can shave two days in a row

I never did before because my stubble doesnt grow that fast but i said oh well today and just went for it.

Razor: Thiers Issard 6/8 branded Evide Sonnant Extra
Strop: 3 inch Black latigo Premier Strop Company (looks alot like the SRD ones)
Brush: Omega 05
Soap: C&E Nomad

Same as always washed my face with cold cold water and let the brush soak.
Decided to go with the C&E soap again because ive never actually used the nomad or sandalwood even tho i have had them for over a month. Good thing i did because these are great soaps!

Went for the TI again today even tho it was my 401's turn today, decided to go for the TI because i just bought it a new brother Le Grelot in bone 6/8 should be coming in the mail hopefully by the end of the month

PS. NEVER NEVER shave while watching the soccer games, i gave myself a nick on the lip when i was paying more attention to the game than my face oops!

Morning shave;
TIPTLE
Simpson PJ Best
MWF
Royall Bay Ruhm

Le Grelot 1/4 Grind
DRH Arlington Shave Soap
Boosters Oriental Spice AS
DRH Arlington edt
TM Horsehide/Linen

Awesome shave.

Great shave with the Wostie Wedge! The AV Blue and 4711 combo was very refreshing and I like the combo. The Williams SS is becoming a regular in my rotation and ranks right up there with MWF IMHO!

Wow! It tool a little while to hone this bad boy up but it was well worth it! For those of you that haven't shaved with a wedge of this size ya have to give it a try when you are comfortable with your skills. Anything that gets in the way is history! So smooth a shave I didn't think it was cutting except for the fact that I had two days growth and it was gone after the blade passed over it. A few more shaves and I think this one may find it's way into the shop for a restore, but then again, maybe not. Some of the smaller blades I put a mirror finish on some times blind me when the catch the lights and reflect them off the mirror into my eyes. I can only guess what this one will do. LOL
