Locale: The Castle of Cuts and Nicks and Razor Burn Music: Silence, sweet, sweet silence Prep: Quick Shower / Hot Towel / Pre-Shave oil Razor: 9/16 Salamandar - Salamandar Werks Foche-Solengen (again) + Weishi DE Hones: 3" chestnut leather 25/50 before 15/20 after Brush: Custom Silvertip in Honey Locust Post: Hot water wash / Alum / Cold Water Splash / Alum / Witch Hazel Uber: RazoRock Cacao AS: Lucky Tiger Edt: English Leather Result: Terrible Shave tonite. I've been shaving with the same razor for 8 days now. I think it needs some help. Lots of tug and drag. 2 passes and still stubble and my face began burning. I had to finish with the DE. That added to the burn. I tried the wash and alum, and every time the alum lit me up! Ok experiment over. I have had enough of the same razor every day. Sally let me down today and must be shelved until honing day arrives!
Happy Shaves Men!!!!

Tuesday
In the middle of painting the bedroom (a hateful, vile task) SWMBO came home with the La Toja shaving cream which has been all of one month in transit. It looked terrible after its journey, but behaved well.
The combination of the Klas Törnblom for the first pass and the Mühle R 89 for the second ATG pass on three days’ growth left me very happy.
Razor: Klas Törnblom /Mühle R 89 Blade: Dorco ‘new platinum’ Pre Shave: Proraso Cream : La Toja (sensitive) ASB: Proraso After Shave: Truefitt and Hill Trafalgar

My new Almond 888 razor deserved a little oriental culture after a BBS shave.
