No pic today due to the fact that my computer is a piece of junk.

Razor: Wade & Butcher "The Celebrated Hollow Ground"
Brush: Jade and brass handled boar
Cream: Uber lather of Williams Mug Soap, Palmolive Lemon and glycerine.
AS: Thayers Lavender followed by English Leather.
Result: Amazing lather produced by the Williams/Palmolive combo. Nothing to say about the W&B except "WOW!!!". By now I should be used to the way this razor shaves, but each time I'm completely blown away. Plus the vintage English Leather is always a pleasure to use. I'm going to be sad when it's gone as the new stuf just doesn't have the same scent to me.

Have a great day and happy shaves!

Wilkinson Sword 7 day set/Burma soap/Rubberset Boar/Aqua Velva

Not a bad maiden voyage today with the old Wilkinson. Honed up the blade, table stropped, then hand stropped. A little tugging was experienced, it could use a little more time on the hones and strops. But overall a DFS, I think it may be worth investing some time in the blades to bring this old girl back to her glory.

Great Shaves, Gentlemen.
