While I was at it I ordered some Micro-Mesh and polished the scales to a new level. She looks great now.
After all that I though the edge would need a little refresh, so it went on the Coticules and then the Thuri.
The shave was SUPERB.
A 2 pass BBS, and what a great way to start the SOTD

Thanks for all the great posts and pics fellas, and have a great week.

Good morning Gentlemen!

Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Haryali badger
Soap: Proraso Green Tea
Scuttle: Robert Becker large
Razor: Mystery razor, 5/8 half hollow
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: Home made Fougere
Notes: I gave this razor a refresh on my travel oozuku, I am having a lot of fun comparing my different finishers. Coming off the oozuku it needs a proper and very different stropping than of most of my other hones. I managed to tame it enough so it was crispy sharp without being too harsh, great BBS 2-pass shave. The fougere is perfect for a cold winter day.



Have a great week, and happy shaving.
