Someone once referred to something as being as difficult as baptizing a cat. I would wager that shaving one would be just as difficult.

Prep: Relaxing hot shower, Proraso pre/post creme
Strop: Home made seatbelt strop w/1.0 diamond paste 10 laps, Star Big Mama 25/40 linen/leather.
Razor: Beau Brummel Wedge
Post: Clubman AS, AOS unscented balm.
Result: Another unbelievable shave. Since I started using the pasted strop the edges are sooo much sharper. I have a Norton 4000/8000 as a finisher so the pasted strop really seems to make a huge difference in the edge.

Have a Great week Gentlemen!

Never Forget!

Trimming a Pussy is something i've not yet done Mikael, but i suppose I could be persuaded if the right pussy came along

PS: What's up with you torturing your cats, LOL?

Cheers Robert! Well, you've got to have some fun ... Lol. She gets these bad dreadlocks, her fur is thick, thick, and then thick. She doesn't like the cutting, at all, but she purrs when she's walking around later and she can actually wash her self in a proper way.

"We Will NEVER Forget 9/11"
An ALL AMERICAN Shave in Honor of the Victims of that day

Strop: 25/45/20 (Neil Miller Linen / Imperial Horsehide leather / Imperial Cordovan leather) - Reviewed HERE.

Results: Early shave this AM as I am heading out the door for a breakfast meeting following by a family get together. I dedicate this shave to the victims of 9/11 . The Genco was restored in all her glory by Glen. The Rudy Vey speaks for itself as does the Mama Bear and NancyBoy. I love the Barbershoppe scent. All around a fabulous, unhurried and enjoyable shave to commemorate this special day.

PS: For those interested, I finally got around to writing a complete review of the Pegasus strop (link HERE).

Have a PEACEFUL Sunday gentlemen. Be safe
