Great Shave, Great Razor, the jury is still out however on this Ogalla soap. I like the scent but performance has been hit and miss and occassionally it seems to burn my skin just a little.

Let me echo the sentiments of so many others on here: Wonderful SOTDs, gentlemen. You are all very talented in your photography, and so generous of your time to share with us all. Thank you!
Pre: Hot shower
Brush: Simpson chubby 2
Razor: Revisor
Soap: P160
AS: Ogallala Lime and Peppercorns
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very, very clean :)
First go with the P160, it´s often compared to Cella (one of my favourites), but it has more of a clean marzipan scent and is thinner than Cella, but still plenty of slip and slick in it - more so than most other soaps. Very good soap!

Result:3 passes and a very comfortable and smooth shave. I have 2 Wostenholm Pipe razors, 1 with an etch on the blade and 1 without. I've not shaved with this one (the etch is hard to see in the photo) in a while and my last shave with it wasn't as good as it could have been. I decided to take her to the hones. This was my first time using Nagura stones to generate slurry. I'm excited to play around these to see what kind of fun I can have :y
Have a fantastic Friday gentlemen, you deserve it!

Thank you Grant :bow. I've really enjoyed using them. I have recently acquired a Japanese Frameback (and a German blade) and waiting for her arrival. I am sure she will become a regular in my rotation soon.Quote:

You are too kind maestro :bow. I appreciate it. Due to a rather busy schedule, I just haven't had time to post comments about everyone's post :(. I really enjoy everyone's post and gear. We've been missing yours though Moonbeam :shrug:.Quote:
