    After a day in Key Biscayne (swimming nearby the lighthouse) we had our dinner in the HRC Miami.





    Yoda quotation today:

    "Hard to see, the dark side is."
    It was the last shave in Miami. Tomorrow in the afternoon we fly back to Germany.

    Default Thursday Morning Shave!

    Shavemac 21mm | Provence Sante Verlaine | Dovo Bismark Spike | Alum | Art of Shaving Sandalwood Balm | Mambear's Dragons Blood Cologne


    This Dovo is kind of my hone experiment blade. After not being happy with my results last time, I took it back to the coticule and gave it 50 additional laps with just water. This smoothed out the edge a lot, and I got a comfortable smooth shave. Still not smooth as butter, but pretty close.

    Great job Frank ...one step closer to the perfect edge

    Remember...With the Coticule (with water), you want no pressure...strokes as light as air. At least that has been my experience. it really makes a HUGE difference.

    Robert,

    That is exactly what I concentrated on. Very light pressure. Seems to have given me good results.

    Tom,
    There will be no swimming in Germany until summer...I hope you enjoyed your FL visit...I certainly did

    Have a safe trip back home and see your next SOTD, German style.

    Thanks Robert,
    maybe I'll have an outdoor shave, because there is a lot of rain in Glauchau, Saxony.
    My mother told me, there was a thunderstorm and some trees in the backyard fall down. The firefighters had done their work already.
    Interesting!

    There will be some work for my camera I think.
    Stay tuned.

    Shorts and sandals are "out" in Germany.
    F..k!
