    I don't think I've seen that Livi posted before. Ivory scales Damascus steel plus worked spine man o man that must be a joy to shave with. Beautiful blade

    Smile My First SOTD

    Gentlemen,
    here is my first SOTD, after I put the first hone wear in my razor (and it was well worth it, although it's not quite there yet).

    Prep: shower and hot towel
    Brush: TI Super Badger 23mm in horn
    Soap: My main man the Fat
    Razor: TI 5/8 full hollow also in horn
    Post: Alum
    AS: Trumper's Coral Skin Food
    Cologne: Trumper's Marlborough

    Name:  Photos 023.jpg
Views: 929
Size:  45.3 KB

    Result: Almost a 3-pass. Closer than usual, but months away from a BBS, it seems (after 2 months straight shaving).

    Have a great Sunday, gents.
