Pre: Hot shower
Brush: Polo 8
Razor: Cape, japanese folding razor for barbers use
Soap: Dr Harris Marlborough
AS: Ogallala Lime and Peppercorns
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very clean
Todays shave was ok and I got clean, but the razor was a little scratchy and I messed to much with the lather (tuning in my new scuttle and did a refill with warm water and of course spilled water in the lather and didnīt have time to relather).

Location: Coffs Harbour Australia
Strop: A H Christian & Sons Vintage
Cream: Tabac
Brush: FS Finest Badger
Razor: ERN Crown & Sword, Laurel DE for the head shave
A/S Balm: Nivea Replenishing Post Shave
A/S: Wahl Bay Rum
Result: I took this one to the hones today. Gave it 50 laps on the Coticule and 50 on the Vintage Thuringian. Much better performance tonight. I think I can still get a little more out of it so it might go back to the stones before the next shave. A good shave never the less, 2 passes and I'm feeling clean and smooth. I like the DE for the head shave, I think it might become part of the daily routine
Have a great day boys.

Result: 2 passes were all that was needed today. I ordered the Alt Innsbrook in December, but it was on backorder. I got home yesterday and it had arrived and was so excited to use it this morning. I bought it to use as an aftershave, but the bottle says cologne. How do you guys use it?
I really like your shot today Bill! A very stunning image, it has mood, drama, panache. Well done! :bow:Quote:
