Everyone,

Great SOTD's so far this week. I was behind in reading them from yesterday and today. You just made the stress of the last 2 days melt away! Keep the great SOTD's coming! Cheers!

Indeed yes.

It was when I found it in the closet that It started all this DE and straight madness.

Makes me think that people who loved you can continue to teach you somenthing even when they are gone...

Solingen 35 | SRD Strop | Simpsons T2 | Maca Root Cream | Nivea ASB

Finally finished a jar of cream and it was the excellent Body Shop Maca Root, unfortunately not from the first batch but a favorite none the less. It's very easy to use, has a thick luxurious cream and is consistent, I personally enjoy it's fragrance too. The "35" razor has been one of my main work horses and provided another excellent irritation free shave today!

Nice story you've shared with us...

Strop: Dovo Prima Rindleder (30 linen, 75 leather)
Prep: Hot water with Nesti Dante bath soap
Soap: Valobra shave stick
Brush: E-bay Rooney with horn handle
Razor: Dovo Special 6/8
Post: Cold water splash and then alum block
After: Old Spice Original Sensitive

It's a holiday in Czech Republic today but a plumber came in the morning to repair the faucet. I picked up this brush and Valobra stick in the post office yesterday. The brush is really soft but quite floppy. I don't like the way how Valobra smells (maybe it'll grow on me later) but it makes really nice leather. I don't know if it was the soap, more stropping or something other but I got my best straight shave yet (in more than 7 months...).
