    Being Fathers day I took a bit more time than usual and it was great.

    Prep: Hot shower with hot towel to follow.
    Razor: Waterville 11/16 Barbers Notch. Just touched up on a Thuri (this stone is new to me )
    Brush: Edwin Jagger Best Badger
    Soap: Once again Cella
    Scuttle: Flower pot scuttle filled with boiling water from tea pot.
    After Shave Balm: Nivea (that's all I ever use)
    After Shave: Aqua Velva Ice Blue.
    Shave was a 4 pass number and came out fantasic. BBS and irritation free.
