Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W Jeff aka Mvcrash had asked me if he could be the first to post his SOTD of the year. Being the sweatheart he is I couldn't say no . I took the opportunity to skip a shave as I didn't have enough stubble to have a decent shave anyways and even if I did I doubt I would have been able to safely handle a strop and razor on new years eve. New Years Shave Prep: Hot shower, warm oil, Stephan's rubbed into the whiskers. Scuttle: Dirty Bird Razor: Maxtom, Spanish Point, 13/16, 3/8 hollow, G10 Jade Ghost tapered with a Bloody Red Jasper Stone tapered wedge Brush: Custom Badger Brush Soap: Mitchell's Woolfat Strop: Ambrose 50 linen/50 leather AS: Aramis EDC: Aramis
Wishing everyone a prosperous and healthy 2012. May all your shaving related whishes come through. Best wishes from Vegas. Max

Thanked: 485Sund'y
A most excellent shave, most bodacious.
I did the "JaNorton 2012" thing and took the edge of the Klas Törnblom (by running it across my magnifying glass twice). The routine is here. I hadn't shaved since Christmas day, so I was quite looking forward to it.
The newly honed Törnblom (Norton 4/8 only) worked well; doing a WTG and ATG with no probs at all. Loved it.
This year I plan to be healthier in mind, body and spirit, and to try and live more in the 'now'...
Be excellent to each other...
Razor: Klas Törnblom Pre Shave: Sukin facial moisturiser on the face and beard in the shower + Proraso Überlather: La Toja (sensitive) + Crabtree and Evelyn Nomad + glycerine ASB: Witch Hazel + Proraso Liquid Cream After Shave After Shave: Pinaud Clubman + Burberry "The Beat" eau de toilette
