Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: Simpson Chubby 1 Razor: Gotta 120 13/16 Strop: 40/60 Neil Miller Linen/Kanayama Cordovan Soap: Tabac After shave: Tabac ASB Results: Not a very good shave today, re-honed this razor this weekend, finished on Llyn Melynllyn. Quite harsh edge, not the smooth, nice edge the other razors I've finished on the LM got, I'm starting to believe this razor like the LM very much

Gentlemen,
Wednesdays always remind me of undercooked steak. They just sit there aimless, in the middle of the week, like a forlorn steak in the middle of a plate. The pleasant shave picked up the slack, though.

Was a bit under the weather today nursing a cold. Quick shave and then the Brian Brown Custom arrived. Guess I'll wait till I feel better to shave with it.

Thanked: 17SOTD February 15
I have yet to get a routine nailed down that includes shaving and snapping a pic for SOTD, but I had a few extra minutes (that I should have spent on the lather ) so here is a late post.
Cream: Proraso
Brush: Rooney silver tip
Razor: ERN 1166 Crown and Sword
Post: RazoRock alum, Thayer's lemon and a splash of Dominican
I missed on the lather, ended up with a runny mess that got the job done but wasn't as nice as I've gotten used to. Two quick passes made me look presentable.
I hope to find some time to check out the SOTD posts... the few I saw on this page are out standing!
