Gentlemen, here is this Sunday's ritual:

Razor: Gillette Fatboy

Sunday morning:

Prep: Face wash
Brush: Haryali badger
Soap: Crabtree & Evelyn Nomad
Scuttle: R. Becker large
Razor: John Barber, 5/8 wedge
Honing: Touched up on a Dragon's Tongue
Result: Very nice, smooh and relaxing 2-pass shave. I had a picture of today's shave all ready to post when all of a sudden my PC crashed something bad and I had to reinstall my operating system. Looks like my network card is fried, but I'm basially all thumbs in these matters. Posting from wife's laptop atm, hope to have my own system up and running in a day or two. Perhaps this will give me some time to work on some razor projects ;D

Have a brilliant week guys!

Great Posts today, Gentlemen!

First lather with RazoRock Limited edition 6/100 artesian soap, a gift from Paul (Str8Shooter) at our recent meet. (Thx Paul!)
Stropped up my Henckels 66 on my Neil Miller leather equipped Lipshaw microtome strop. What a nice, aromatic and smooth shave! The Best!

Sitting in front of the TV today after a big breakfast. Supercross and Superbowl!

Have a nice week All! Make Good things happen!

Sunday

Razor: Dovo Bismarck 6/8
Brush: Omega boar
Soap: Institut Karite (in Burma Shave mug)
Toner: Booster Mosswood
A/S: Polo

Great Sunday shave. I used Booster Mosswood in place of witch hazel. I think I've used a variation of this picture before, but why reinvent the wheel since I pretty much use the same stuff every Sunday.

Beautiful stuff guys. Keep them coming.
