Thanked: 485Wednesday
Nice shave with the Klas Törnblom today. No need for more than one pass. I used the Crabtree and Evelyn Nomad by itself today. Normally, I use the Nomad in an Überlather, it was quite acceptable by itself. Today called for Clubman.

Minimalist shave 4-4-12
9/16 Salamander
Whipped Dog Boar
TOBS Eton College
Lucky Tiger AS
Old English Black Leather
Today's shave was with the intent of seeing how minimalist I could be. a $10 razor, a 10$ brush, a recycled mixing bowl. Only 50 laps on the leather strop too using my star shaving strop. The most expensive part of this shave was the lather.
The shave itself was not that great, it seems I need to return this blade to the stones at some point in the future. It felt like the edge was a little ragged. It did leave the chin a little burned, but the lucky tiger brought it around ok. The Old English was so I would have something to sniff while I clean!!
Have a happy Wednesday fellow shavers!
