Thread: SOTD - Sun August 1th - Sat August 7th

Joe was treated to a shave by me on Sunday night

Strop: Wonderhone
SC: Sage & Citrus
Brush 23MM Shave Mac
Razor: W & B 6/8ish wedge, plus a pair of Harrison Bros & Howsen 5/8 round point hollows

Pre: Hot shower
Brush: Ikon chubby silvertip

Soaps: Nannys Ecualyptus + Palmolive = super/rich/slick lather
Post: Proraso (+ pre on head)

Result: Very clean
When we went to our countryside place I forgot a strop , but I bought some really cheap belts (less than 3 usd together on a flee market), one leather and one cotton and they actually work very well. Shave was very close on the face and an ok head shave, the lather could have gone to another pass, I did 2 1/2 on the face and two on the head

Hi Mark,
Loving that setup ...Is that the spike point Friodur? Is that a John Crowley purchase? How are you liking your shaves with that beast?
