Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 23mm Simpson "Chubby 2", 2-band Super Badger
Maxterpiece: 6/8" Wade & Butcher "Original Bow", 1/4 Hollow Ground, Spike Point (w/ Faux Tortoise scales)
Honing (refresh) Regimen: Finished with 7 (light) laps on CrOx on sanded SRD Premium IV Bridle leather
Strop: 0/50 laps (Torolf Linen / Ambrose Horse Hide Clásico leather)
Überlather: AOS "Lavender" Shave Creme + SRD "Lavender" Shave Soap + Glycerin

Results: Took out my other Bow for a trip down memory lane. This and my DD Goldedge were my first Maxterpieces. She is a beautiful shaver. Smooth as butter. The SRD/AOS lavender combination not only provided a heavenly lather, but an equally divine and aromatic scent. What a shave. I love it when everything just clicks. BBS all the way baby!!! Now, only if I can stop faceturbating, I could get my head in the game and start my work .






Have a TERRIFIC Thursday gentlemen.
