    Default SUNDAY MORNING SHAVE

    PREP: Hot shower with face scrub
    RAZOR: Wester Bros DE-FI 34
    BRUSH: PJ3
    SOAP: The bomb in "VETIVER"
    AS: Aqua Velva
    ASB: Aqua Velva
    EDT: L'occitane Vetyver
    RESULTS: GREAT START TO THE WEEK

    Restored my Wester Bros finally and got to use her today. Honed her up with my Naniwas 1-12k and finished her off on the Crox paddle strop. This is a great shaver. Smooth in 1 pass and BBS in 2. Another joy of todays shave was my Bomb in VETIVER. Hands down best Vetiver scent out there for me, and it lathered up as all bombs do, amazingly! Finished the shave off with some L'occitane Vetyver which is a perfect vetiver scent that i can where at work( i work at H&M ) with alot of younger people so this youthful take on vetiver Im sure will please them,lol. All in all a great shave to start this Week.

    GREAT PICS BY EVERYONE SO FAR!!!!!
    CONGRATS ON YOUR RAZOR MAX ITS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR FOR YA!!!

    Result: AWESOME. Man this thing shaved nice. Sharp and smooth. 3 passes and BBS.
    Stunning blade...Congrats on the honing mate. You da man

    Nice, relaxing, unhurried BBS shave!
    That's a beautiful razor Otto. I love the smile on her... Those unhurried shaves are the BEST a man can get

    Great shot. Blue everywhere...hopefully that doesn't reflect the mood, just a beautiful color. Well done Mikael

    Very nice razor Matt. Good job on the restoration and honing. You are becoming quite the force to reckon with.

    Beautiful razors and gear!! I've never posted to this thread before, but I thought you guys might like some contrast to all the wonderful eye-candy. Consider this a piece of old-fashioned Horehound. You know, not too sweet, but soothing to the throat.

    I minimally cleaned this old baby and left the patina along with the worm chewed scales since I like old things as original as possible. This razor is a pleasure to shave with. I find myself wanting to move it up in my rotation. So, I do.

    Best wishes to all.
    Bill
