Earlier than usual shave for me, but still a excellent result from the feather, two pass shave with a little clean up around the chin. If you are in a hurry dont even think of using this razor, pick up the DE.

Really wish I could get in the habit of morning PT. I really like the wake up but on most mornings at 4-5 A.M. I'd much rather sleep than run. For some reason evening PT always seemed to work better for me. Ironic the exact opposite is true of shaving.

Brush: Neep, soapstone handle extra stuffed 28 mm silvertip
Razor: C V Heljestrand no 6 in custom made scales by Neil Miller
Soap: MdC
AS: Island, Bay Rum
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Uberclean :D
My God! This razor is perfect, from a shaving point (my shaving point) it's right under 13/16 and the scales're extremly nice, I think. Neil Miller made them, it's w stearling silver inlays and horn and they're simply wonderful scales! The edge was superb aswell! Combined with MdC it was a hit, I actually only used the left over soap, first, as AS. But then decided I wanted a nice Bay Rum scent too :D

Nice shave.............though I don't want to sound like I'm complaining but.......I would much rather have the GFT Limes cream. The soap is more lemon than lime and more to the point has a lemony toilet cleaner smell about it (IMHO!) Also the Skin Food is running dangerously low! I must get a wee order phoned to Trumpers if only I can get it past the bank manager!
Good morning gents.
