    I had two days worth of stubble, but the M&W melted it away, like it was nothing much. I couldn´t tell the difference to a normal shave w one day stubble. Amazing razor!

    Thank you. No, she got new scales. At first, when Neil told me he wanted to try transparant scales, I thought it wouldn´t go well with such an old razor, but I followed Neils advice and I think it turned out very nice. It´s one of my favourites, for sure.

    Prep: Hot Shower with Bulgari White Tea Cream Rinse in beard
    Strop: Kanayama
    Razor: Wacker Jubilaum Edition Mod2
    Brush: Shavemac Silvertip
    Lather: Ogallala Bay Rum + CarrieM Bay Rum + 6 drops Glycerin
    Post: Tade Alum + Thayer's Lavender Witch hazel
    ASB: CarrieM AS Milk (Unscented) + Trumpers Sandalwood SkinFood
    EdT: Amouage Tribute Attar



    This Wacker continues to impress beyond words! The blade glided so effortlessly across my face with the awesome lather and hairs just melted underneath it. I was left with a smooth comfortable face. The Amouage Tribute has a depth to it that few colognes can match!

    Gentlemen, keep the pictures coming because if the shaves are even fractionally as nice as the pictures look, you're all having an awesome week!

    Indeed, it's awesome. How does it shave and can you comment on roughly how similar it is to the Le Grelot 1/4 grind?

    Sorry, I never had a Grelot. My TI is a very good razor-you get a skin as smooth as a baby's bottom.

    Cold water shave again. Refreshing on these hot and humid days. I had picked out TAOS cream but my daughter cam in and told me to use Ogallala bay rum. Yes Dear! I just recieved this Dorko razor from Manaman. Ahh what a fantastic way to start a day. She just wiped the wiskers away.

    SRD strop
    Ogallala Bay rum
    Dorko 13/16
    Thayers witch hazel
    Skin food
    TAOS Balm
