    Default Friday morning

    Pre: Cold shower
    Razor: Heljestrand 9 1/2
    Brush: 22 mm two banded finest
    Soap: Nannys Citrus Zinger
    Post: Proraso
    AS: Old Spice Fresh Lime
    Result: Ok
    I love this razor, lovely new made purpleheart wood scales by Neil Miller and one heavy piece of Swedish steel. Unfortunatly I was a bit stressed out this morning and I didn´t get the best out of this shave, ok and clean enough but nothing extra. Love the OS fresh lime, skin sucks it right in and you can really feel how good it is

    Mikael,

    That's a beautiful razor you've got there. And a nice photo of it, along with the rest of your shaving kit. Congrats.

    Default Best shave of my life

    By a long shot.

    Razor: The waiting has paid off, and my first rescale (but assuredly not my last) by Max has returned to me. Rescaled in S-shaped Blue Paua Shell, with an inlay transfer, The WorldMaster 194 is one of the smoothest shavers to ever touch my face. I'm sure some of you know how much I like my wedge blades... I have trouble keeping anything more than half hollow (and most half hollows, for that matter!) And yet, this fully hollow WorldMaster is in a tier of its own. It was given to me by my girlfriend's father in excellent condition under the rust (purely surface rust, no pitting) but with broken scales... Lynn used it to teach me to buff (and did a fantastic job) and then it went off to Max... His work is simply sublime. The shave off this blade is as nice as the scales! Absolutely outstanding.

    Brush: Brand new H. L. Thater, 24mm in plexiglass handle... It feels smaller than 24mm, but that's because the knot is so tightly packed, and the handle is fairly small... However, the ergonomics are spot on, and the bristles are out of this world. Super soft tips, with amazing backbone... I used it to facelather with fantastic results.

    Cream: An old favorite, CarrieM's Black Raspberry. I think I'll bowl lather it from now on, by personal preference, but a fantastic cream!

    Strop: Always trustworthy, SRD Modular paddle equipped with raw felt and Premium I. 40/50 before the shave, 30/50 after.

    Drink: A warm tea-pot of black tea... Irish Breakfast to be precise, with a small amount of sugar, and some cream. Delicious way to end a fantastic shave.

    Results: 2 passes, WTG and XTG, left damn near BBS ATG! I love this razor, cream and brush. Truly the best one yet!

    Cheers, SOTD friends!

    Jeremy

    Chris,

    I love your brush. The handle is quite impressive. Where did you get it?
