    Nice light, actually. I like this forum for the shave related stuff, but I also like it for the really good photography...I think we all need to be hired by a major advertising firm ASAP...

    Thank you.

    Sunlight was streaming in my bedroom window so no need for flash.
    Though I had to stand at a strange angle so I wasn't taking my own shadow!!

    Just a humble shave for the day after hump-day... I do love this sport!

    Prep: Hot shower
    Brush: Le Tuft, Simpson super knot in horn handle w Paua Abalone (NOS Swedish brush to the left)
    Razor: Silversteel Solingen prob by Garantie (funny spelling though)
    Soap: MdC
    As cologne: Fonex, Malibu
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Very, very clean

    Nice razor and very nice edge (Cheers Neil!), most likely old school silversteel or maybe plain carbon steel, doesn't feel like stainless steel. I'm happy I found this razor, it's a keeper!

    Mikael, WHY is it that you own ALL the coolest razors? Are you like a Loving, Caring, Razor Shepherd or something?
    BTW, where's the coffee?

    Unusual for me to shave two days in a row, even though I have the growth it's not something I do, just a little boredom spurred it on, after using my Feather AC-SS for the last couple of weeks it's certainly made shaving with a straight easier for sure, just not as sharp, a little more cleaning up to do, two pass shave good result, not shave now till saturday or sunday at least.
