Thanked: 12 Monday
good morning.
Today's set-up:
Dovo 6/8 Best Quality (15 laps on the webbing / 50 on leather)
Tom's of Maine Calendula SC
Thayer's
Aqua Velva Original Sport (the green Canadian one)
Nivea ASB
Bigelow Green Cologne
I shaved late yesterday, so this morning was pretty easy going... I was a bit rushed for time, but no cuts / nicks, just a few spots missed that needed a DE touch up.

). Combined with the Acca Kappa, this blade delivered an outstanding shave today. I am a very happy camper

I don't think I have ever written much about using oil on a coti, I might have mentioned some time that that's on the list of things to try, but I think your thank you should be to someone else.. 
But I'm going to try it now!

My bad Amund...It was Nic (aka, Jeltz) I was thinking of. He's the one who mentioned the Coti+MO combo
. My apologies Nic
