Week of August 28 SOTD - Tuesday
Pre-Shave: Hot shower |
Brush: 25mm Custom Shavemac D01 Silvertip Badger |
Maxterpiece: 7/8" Friodur INOX scalloped back, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point (w/ Black paper Micarta scales) |
Honing Regimen: Maruichi Nakayama Asagi w/ Tomonagura slurry dilution and 70 laps on water |
Strop: 0/0/0 (Neil Miller Linen / Imperial Horsehide leather / Imperial Cordovan leather) |
Überlather: Black Jack Shave Creme + D.R. Harris "Arlington" Shave Soap + Glycerin |
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol) |
Moisturizer: D.R. Harris Aftershave Milk |
After Shave Splash: D.R. Harris "Arlington" AS |
Cologne: D.R. Harris "Arlington" EdC |
Results: This Friodur is an absolutely wonderful shaver. I refreshed the edge on the Asagi last night and this AM, she delivered one of the smoothest shaves:nj (albeit with a very tiny nick below the upper lip). The Arlington is a refreshingly fragrant and fantastic soap. Lovely in every aspect:y. I hope they never discontinue it (maybe I should stock up and not take any chances). |
