Friday
Razor: Kraut & Dohnal 9/16
Brush: Men-U Boar
Soap: TSD Cool Water type
Toner: witch hazel
A/S: Aqual Velva Ice Sport
My beard wasn't terribly thick this morning, so I decided to get out the K&D. It was my first straight razor, and now seems quite small compared to the 6/8 razors I usually use. The razor was tugging quite a bit when I started the first pass and tugging a lot by the end I paused and got out the barber hone for 5 quick laps and re-stropped then finished the shave. That did the trick and I was able to get a BBS shave!
Before today, I was toying with passing this razor on because it is so small. I think my technique must be getting better because I was able to get a BBS shave just by taking shorter strokes, and a greater number of strokes than I do with the bigger razors.
