Good question. She seems to like just about everything, but I think I got the biggest reaction out of her from Black Aoud.

Prep:Hot shower
Brush:TGN Custom
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream: J.M. Fraser Mosswood
Razor: Wostenholm Pipe (there really aren't 2 flat spots on the spine, bad photo)
After shave: Pinaud Clubman
EDT: None


Result:I had a shave on Saturday, went to work, came home and caught the stomach flu from wife & daughter. I spent the last 3 days feeling less than human, today I feel much more normal. It was great to shave off the 4 days of growth. I can say that prior to having my daughter, I can't recall having the stomach flu since the 6th grade...this makes the 2nd time in 2 months, ah, but she's worth it

Great pics everyone!

I have so much to say and so little time, but I wanted to give a huge shout to Jacky Boy, CONGRATULATIONS LITTLE MAN!!!

I'm impressed with Neil's honing job, but I also think the blade itself is just very well made!

Yes please! Yeah, absoloutly good quality steel in those blades! In my experience of the Eskilstuna manufactors who made the thinnest steel blades, very close to the German way of doing things. Not all of the Törnblom razors, but many and the one you have.
