    Default Another early shave evening post

    Started off with a hot towel, lathered up with T&H Trafalgar on a Rooney brush, removed it with a Boker Edelweiss the more I use this razor the more I like the way it shaves. Gave a smoooooth start to a very busy Monday, oh and I topped it off with a splash of RL POLO Sport. Have a peaceful evening gentlemen.
    My best to you all,
    Jim
