David,
+1 to that. One man's worse blade can be another man's best performer. Well done. Thank you

You bet Mikael. Have fun with the honing. She's going to be a fun one to hone up

The pic includes a little nod to Poly Styrene, whose death was announced earlier today.

Andy,
Great Shark buddy. For a second, I was wondering what you meant by PS's death. Then I realized it's the singer you were referring to. Not familiar at all with her music.

I received this Fromm via Max yesterday. The shave was just amazing as anyone who has ever shaved with a Maxter-piece will attest.

Congratulations Jeff,
So, you're the one who snatched this "Horny Maxterpiece", LOL? She is a beautiful blade. No one does horn like Max.

Thanks Robert! Love the Salter Vetiver. ...and in response to your question yesterday. I do still have my Boker Edelweiss. I love that little razor. I have been known to give up on my razors rather quickly, but that is the senior member in my rotation.

Prep:Hot Shower
Scuttle: Dirty Bird Custom Double
Brush: TGN Premium Silvertip 22mm
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream:Goodfella's Bomb
Razor: Wostenholm Pipe
After shave: Alt-Innsbrook
EDT: L'Occitane Vetyver


Result:The Wostenholm is due for a trip to the hones. A decent 2 pass shave today.

I hope everyone had a great Tuesday!

Thanks Robert, were looking forward to the storms ending and a beautiful weekend is on tap...and not a day to soon

Thanks for the tip Grant! I totally agree that a perfectly fitted wedge makes everything "pop". I put your advice to good use this evening and hopefully I'll have pics to post soon (I've had a bad run of breaking scales lately due to clumsiness).
