11-29-2011, 11:18 AM #122Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Muhle, 25 mm silvertip
Razor: Welcome
Soap: Provence Santé
AS: Code
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very, very clean
New brush (from a trade) and I'm very pleased with how it behaves, some funky new badger/brush syndrome, but this is a very nice soft tip brush (even though not to floppy, was going to be my cream brush, but it'll work great with this kind of soaps too). Tall as a Polo 8 and with some heavy weight to it, just like how I like 'em

Last night shave was a late one.
Test shave. One razor sold to someone for their first razor "The American Product Co" and the other was in my box needing to be honed. Chicago pocket knife co 8/8.
Honed them up this weekend. I choce Ogallala Bay rum and calypso. Mounds of lather and an awesome Aroma. One pass on half my face with the American and i knew she was ready to go. The Chicago razor Finished up the
rest of the shave. SUPER BBS Sticky smooth in 2 passes with zero irritation! I am a happy man with this razor.

This razor is special because it's just one initial off from my name! I took it to the hones and set the bevel polished it up and the shave this morning was incredibly smooth!
