WEDNESDAY SHAVE
PREP: Hot Shower
RAZOR: Wosty
BRUSH: Thater
UBER: Trumpers Sandalwood with QED sandalwood
ASTRINGENT: Thayers
ASB: Skinfood Sandalwood
EDT: Le Labo Santal 33
RESULTS : FRESH AND CLEAN
I rescaled this Wosty the other day. It fits the blade a lot better than my previous scales IMO, and I had to touch this blade up on my Naniwa 12k. Gave me an effortless shave
The sandalwood soap and cream combo gave me great smelling, extra smooth, moisturized skin. An excellent shave for this Wednesday .
FABULOUS SHAVES SO FAR GUYS

Thanks so much. I am not a conservative or liberal. I consider myself a "reasonable." There seems to be a polarizarion of the political scene, either too liberal or too conservative. So, who wants to join the "Resonable" party with me?
That is one gorgeous razor!!!!! I am floored by the craftsmanship.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

It's possible. I can't remember. Either way, you have a great brush collection 9synthetic and natural)
It may be cheap, but it sure sounds fantastic.
Beautiful little devil you got there T.
Great gear Matt. Nice rescale on that Wosty man.
PS: QED Sandalwood is one of the best imo.
Bro,
I am soooo there with you. It's funny, Rene and I were chatting about exactly the same issue last night. The political scene is way too polarized these days...nothing reasonable on either side.

Week of June 12 SOTD - Wednesday
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: 24mm Morris & Forndran, 2-band Blonde Badger Maxterpiece: 7/8" Wade & Butcher Frameback, Wedge, Spike/Barber's Notch (Black Horn scales) Strop: 25/50 laps (Torolf linen / SRD Premium IV leather) Überlather: Czech & Speake №88 Shave soap Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol) Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer After Shave Splash: Truefitt & Hill "Spanish Leather" AS Cologne: Penhaligon's "Opus 1870" EdT Results: Today, I received a wonderful shave with this W&B frameback. She had help though...the C&S #88 delivers an outstanding (10 out of 10) lather that is rivaled by only a handful of top performing soaps . Performance aside, the scent is just "meh" (6 out of 10, for me). Another smooth start to what is sure to turn into a beautiful day.

Have a FANTASTIC Wednesday gentlemen .

Beautiful photo...Beautiful razor eTom.
That's quite a work of straight razor art you've got there. Congrats!
That's an outstanding Wacker as part of your shaving kit this morning.
