    Cool Shower
    Warm Oil
    Dirty Bird Scuttle
    La Toja Soap
    New Forest Badger
    Dubl Duck, 7/8
    SRD P1 50 Linen 50 Leather
    AOS Aluminum
    Stephan's Lavender AS
    Vaseline for men.

    This big Duck give a great shave. The edge is superb. The La Toja lathers up very well and has nice glide. Could use a bit more scent IMHO.

    Enjoy the evening

    Great shave, but you're wearing the wrong cologne!

    Prep: Hot Shower & OBR Soap / oil rub
    WD 24mm Silvertip
    Challenge Razor Works 6/8 Barbers Notch
    Balsa CrOx 40 / Felt Diamond Spray 40 / Leather 100
    Razorock XXX
    Ali Biliyki Alum Block rub
    Lucky Tiger Splash
    English Leather


    Excellent shave. This is my first attempt with a Balsa paddle strop with CrOx and a felt paddle strop with diamond spray. Impressive results. Last shave with this razor was good, but I felt it could have been smoother. My new paddles did the trick wonderfully. The Razorock is new, and first shave with it. It competes with the TOBS or the Tabac easily for smoothness. The scent was excellent and the lather took quickly and lasted well.
