Locale: The Throne Room Music: Ted Nugent - Live at Hammersmith '79 Prep: Hot Shower / Greek Authentic Olive Oil Soap / Virgin Olive Oil Rub Razor: 9/16 Salamandar - Salamandar Werks Foche-Solengen (again) Hones: 3" chestnut leather 25/50 before 15/20 after Brush: Custom Silvertip in Burled Maple Post: Cold Water Splash - Alum - Tend Skin Uber: Tabac Soap + Speik Creme = Meh! AS: Lucky Tiger Edt: Stetson Result: I couldn't wait to shave this morning. I got up early, washed some cars, polished and waxed SWMBO's for her first. Came in for a shower and shave. The Tabac + Speik wasn't too great. A little thin for my tastes. However, it didn't stop me from getting a really clean 3 pass shave. BBS aint all it's cracked up to be. Those ATG passes can get really close, maybe a tad too close as I am kind of burning right now. I wonder what Robert would say about that!!! As in, Dumb *ss!!! hehehe. Have a happy Sunday all!
Happy Shaves Men!!!!

Well i was finally able to hone this razor up. My daughter, a while back, had ran it across a towel to see if it was sharp. Yea not too happy. Sadly i will have to bring her back because somewhere along the progressions it started breaking down the edge. Very fine jagged edge. This was after i shave and wondered why doing XTG pass it wasnt getting as close as she should. Oh well
