Brush: Omega Boar
Soap/Creme: Cella, red tub
Razor: Racer
Blade: Astra SP
Pre: Shower and glycerin soap
Post: Witch Hazel
Hair Groom: Gables creme-oil
Result: Good, better than I expected. I'd had somewhat poor results the first time I used a racer, but it has a dark green handle, so paired with my Cella soap it made for a good holiday razor. With the Astra Sp blade it gave a quick, easy, ccs to dfs.
I rehoned this Otto on my Nanawa's. Now i could get a great, smooth and irritation free shave from my Nortons. But i can feel a Huge improvement. Buttery smooth. Nirvana Shave!!!

Wish you a Merry Christmas
Finally, Christmas eve is here!
I've been away from the SOTD for a while, life has been a bit hectic:)
But now, the holidays will slow the pace down a bit, so I'll try to participate a bit more. I've missed the SOTD and you guys:)
Here in Norway, the big day is the 24th. That's the day we open the presents and all meet for a lovely Christmas dinner.
The two kids my wife and I took in to our life's in February are climbing the walls with excitement;).
This will be a Christmas to remember for all of us here in our little family.
I wish you all the very best of holidays!
