    Default Sunday

    Prep: Hot shower
    Brush: Martinez' custom: Chess King w/ 26mm silver tip badger
    Soap: Mama Bear's Ye Olde Barbershoppe
    Strop: Tony Miller Heirloom tri-strop (3x25)
    Razor: Moreton & Langley's razor 13/16
    ASB: Caswell-Massey Number Six
    soundtrack: Anne-Sophie Mutter: Beethoven


    I like this Sunday routine. The feel of a sharp, old Sheffield blade, the smell of Mama Bear’s
    Ye Olde Barbershoppe soap and the sound of Anne-Sophie Mutter’s rendition of Beethoven
    coming from my surround sound system.
    Out side it is winter and snow, but my wood stove is putting up an effective barrier of heat
    against it. The smell and sound of birch wood burning adds to the relaxing atmosphere.
    A nice BBS shave. Have a good week.

    Sorry to hear about Nick's visit, Mikael, but I must say to both of you gentlemen, that these are some gorgeous kamisori. But--Why are you trying so hard to fuel my RAD???

    The excursion sounds lovely-and the shave looked so. Teavana has some nice teas. What a great way to warm up after a cold excursion!

    Three razors, Max? How did your baby-face ever survive? Great looking blades, though!
