Hot Shower

First shave with the Supplee hardware razor after
being honed by Joe Chandler. Nice little razor.
Close comfortable shave.

The Butler finally gave me a real close shave, but I'll take it back to the hone to increase the comfort level. There was some slight pulling on a couple of occasions, which I plan to eliminate.

Since we did some shopping for the house, I jumped on the bandwagon and bought that aqua velva ice stuff. In all honesty, I love it. It really does cool the skin and absorbs quickly so there's no greasy sensation. The scent isn't anything special, so I wouldn't use it before going clubbing or on a date, but it's ok for work. It outperforms any of the pharmacy stuff like fusion, nivea etc etc etc. that costs twice as much or more. One more thing that I missed was the sting, but that's what you get from non-alcoholic stuff.
