The R41 is an amazing DE razor, rivals my straight shaves.

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: 25mm Morris & Forndran Blonde Badger (with real bone handle)

Razor: 15/16" E. Klopp "Spezial" worked back spine, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point

Strop: 10/55/25 laps (Neil Miller Linen / Imperial Shave "Pegasus III" Horse hide leather / Cordovan leather)

Überlather: NancyBoy "Signature" Shave Creme + Cella Crema de Barba Shave Soap + Glycerin

Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol)

Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer

After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue AS

After Shave Balm: NancyBoy "Replenishing" AS gel

Cologne: Van Cleef & Arpels "Tsar" EdT

Results: Looks like we survived the end of the world. If not, then I am writing this post from Heaven (or Hell). A great shave to end this SOTD week. The Ernst Klopp was an eBay find and delivers one smooth shave. The NancyBoy is one of the top notch cremes in my collection. Combined with the tallow-ish goodness of the Cella, it's a tough proposition to beat. Wonderfully smooth finish. I am as happy as a clam.

Have a GREAT Saturday gentlemen.

Excellent Saturday shave, if brief because I was getting ready to go to the store to get things to cook for my wife on her birthday. No DE touch up required again...I think I'm starting to get the hang of using a straight! Polo (my wife's favorite) provided an excellent finish to a very good shave.
