The blade on this razor never ceases to amaze me. It's like a laser in it's ability to cut through the stubble. The two band Thäter was also great as was the QED Sandalwood and the balm.
Great shave and hair trim.

This Gotta has been out of the rotation for around 6 months, but now its finally restored and I honed it up last night.
I have to say I'm pretty impressed with the edge I got on it. 2 passes and a couple of touch-ups and I'm BBS.
Its nice to have this old friend back in the arsenal.
Thanks for all the great posts and pics boys.

Funny how taste changes over the years. I used not to be taken with Sandalwood but now I really like the stuff? My mother informs me we all have our own wee way of going mad!
Morning gents.

Prep: Hot Water Wash
Razor: Boker Red Injun 102
Brush: Omega Boar
Soap: Speick Shavestick
AS: Aloe Vera Gel
Finish: Paul Sebastian (knock off)
Nice shave! I was good to go after one pass but did a second just for fun. The more I use this Speick, the more I like it. I may play with a few other shavesticks (i.e. Tabac, Irisch Moos, La Toja, etc.). Of course, I'm a big fan of Arko shavesticks as well. Have a great one fellas!The older I get, the better I was

This one was so good, he asked if he could rewind and watch it again:
He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
