Soap VDH & Glyc
Razor Twinworks Henckels
Brush VDH boar Brush
AS Wild Country
Backup Razor Wade & Butcher BOW razor ( I added the scales from a cheapo show razor.)


This was My second shave with the TwinWorks and it was better since I did a little touch up to the Razor. The little shaving mug in the back ground is for lather, The Big Mug I add some water and place it on top My burner to heat the water. After I make lather I place the smaller mug in the bigger mug, This makes for a nice warm lather.

Good to have you with us again, and glad to hear the shave-fu is strong in you

Very great shave today. I posted last week about my Max razor which was a Christmas gift. Well... I just had to get another. This time it was a fixed blade.

I'm telling you, of you haven't tried a fixed blade yet, definitely try to get your hands on one! It's a different experience and feel with no scales and I really enjoy it.

Razor - Max Sprecher 8/8 fixed blade 1/4 hollow
Brush - Plisson European White
Soap - Crabtree & Evelyn Nomad

Another Plisson here !!!
