Bank holiday in Sweden
Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Simpson chubby 2
Razor: Wacker
Soap: Omega
AS: Mennen SB
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very clean
Mr Nicks older brother came by and told me not to be so cocky when swinging this blade Fine shave never the less, love this soap and AS when it´s hot outside (turning into a splendid day today ).

What a fantastic looking razor, top marks for that shave.

Jamie

Prep: Hot Shower, Baby Oil Gel
Razor: Boker Barber Tip
Brush: Semogue 1305
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
AS: Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Finish: Brut Cologne

Simple as a brick but quite effective. Two passes was good enough today. The edge on this razor is in great shape.

Strop: Illinois 835
Brush: FS Finest Badger
Soap: Proraso
Razor: Bengall 11/16
Astringent: Thayer's Unscented Witch Hazel
Balm: Nivea Replenishing
A/S: Wahl Bay Rum
This Bengall just had a touch-up on Coticule and Thuri. Although it did deliver a great shave (near BBS after 2 passes), I feel that It should be a little sharper and a little smoother. I've been finding myself in this situation a few times lately and I'm not certain weather its my honing, my new coticule or if I'm just getting more and more fussy about my edges. I'll give it a little more work next time the hones are out.

Enjoy the weekend fellas

PS: Hope you didn't have too hard of a workday yesterday.

Thank you Robert. You're too kind my friend. The long workday wasn't too bad. We were doing a job fair and I needed to be on hand to do interviews. We saw over 70 candidates and will likely pursue about 20 of them. Overall, a productive day...just long
