Nice Crown and Sword, Grant. I have one identical to it that I need to buff out a scratch in the scales and then hone up. Looking forward to the shaves (sans the cut under the nose obviously).

Cheers! Henk's good, he only makes small batches (soap and brushes) and this is an oak handle with tons of nice shapes and varnish.

Tonight's shave:

Warm Shower, Stephan's SC, Warm oil
Dirty Bird scuttle
badger Brush
Uber lather: Acca Kappa cream, Gentleman's Best soap
Boker Warranted, 5/8 Shoulder-less
SRD, 50 linen, 50 leather
Thayer's Cucumber AS
Vaseline for men

I decided to combine the Acca kappa and GB soap this evening. The combination was incredible as it overloaded the scuttle with thick lather with a beautiful aroma. The Boker performed very well by providing a very nice, comfortable shave.
