    This piano-player we found in front of the catholic church (of the Kings of Saxony) in Dresden.
    Bad weather, late in the afternoon, only a small camera with me.

    Default Tuesday

    Pre-Shave: Hot shower
    Brush: Simpson Chubby 1
    Razor: ERN Crown & Sword 7/8
    Honing Regimen: Naniwa SS 1-3-8-12K, CrOx
    Strop: 100/100 Neil Miller Linen/English Bridle
    Soap/Cream: Dovo Eucalyptus
    After shave: Mennen Skin Bracer
    Results: Finished up this baby yesterday, cleaned her, gave her a brand new dress made of red G10 and honed her up on the Naniwas. The Dovo "cream" (read: Soap) lathered up pretty easily despite what I've heard about it, and after this shave I can truly say I understand why these razors got their reputation, she took a wonderfully sharp and smooth edge giving a spledid two-pass DFS++ shave.

    that means that you are not interested in a trade?

    CommentFollowing Paul's advice I've chosen a razor for roofs, I guess , I kept it in a safe and warm place for shooting the picture. After a mach3 shave the straight has given back to me the feeling of a real shave. French stuff had become the best partners for this TI evidé sonnant and the result has been better than expected. The Humble Witch Hazel is a fantastic product and it makes better the camomille oil from Martin de Candre, I didn't expet that the best of this shave would be the aftershave but it was .
