Here you go Jamie! Todays carry/CCW/EDC.
Pulled out the D. Caraceni(big thanks to Ryan for sending me some). I've had this awhile but this is only the second time using it. What a shame they stopped making it as it's fantastic!! Awesome 3 pass shave today. Geneva made some really great razors. I'll have to make this girl a new dress when time allows. No way she should have such a plain ugly dress.
Have a great day all!

Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: Simpson Chubby 1 Razor: Hart Steel 6/8 Strop: 40/60 Neil Miller Linen/Kanayama Cordovan Soap: Sir Irisch Moos After shave: Sir Irisch Moos Results: As always with the Hart I had a splendid shave. Gave it a few laps on a Norton Barberhone at the meetup, it did possibly make it a tad sharper, but also a tad rougher, but still nice and comfortable.
