    Strop: Illinois 835
    Brush: FS Finest Badger
    Soap: Proraso (White)
    Razor: Royal Invicta 6/8
    Astringent: Thayer's Unscented Witch Hazel
    Balm: Nivea Replenishing
    A/S: Wahl Bay Rum
    Result: This razor is in top shape at the moment after just getting a rescale and the blade sanded, polished and honed. A very comfortable shave, as close to BBS as I get from just 2 passes.
    In the picture is one of the display cases I've just finished. I made 2 of them because, lets be honest, I know I'll fill them. And one day I'd like to pass on a 7 day set to each of my sons.
    Have a great day gentlemen

    Baldy / Grant: Nice display case, is it lock-able?

    Thanks, it has a brass latch on it to keep it closed, but not a lock as such. It will be high enough so that the kids cant reach it for a few years.

    Post Week of May 1 SOTD - Wednesday

    Pre-Shave: Hot shower
    Brush: 26mm Saville Row 3326 Silvertip Badger
    Maxterpiece: 15/16" Heinrich Böker #14 "Arbolito", Full Hollow Ground, Muted Spike Point (Black Horn scales)
    Strop: 45/60 laps (Torolf linen/Premium IV leather)
    Überlather: Provence Santé Shave Creme + Provence Santé Shave Soap + Glycerin
    Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
    Moisturizer: D.R. Harris After Shave Milk
    After Shave Splash: D.R. Harris "Pink" After Shave
    Results: This Arbolito is an amazing shaver ...especially this one, scaled by Max in beautiful black horn. No one does horn the way Max does it. We can call it the "Horny Maxterpiece" . Anyhoo, I digress. The Provence Sante überlather was a beautiful way to get the beard prepped up for this blade. And the Saville Row was the perfect choice for delivering and working this rich, wholesome lather into the whiskers. Ooooooh Yeaaaaaah!!!!!! This thing was so delicious that I spent a good 3 minutes working this lather into my face. The D.R. Harris Milk/AS mix provided the perfect finish to this fabulous shave. What a way to start this Wednesday.


    ******************************


    Have a MARVELOUS Wednesday gentlemen .

    To Max: get well soon brother
