Great shave with an exceptional razor. It is new to my rotation and was freshly honed by me on a La Verte. Excellent results, but might bee a hair too keen for my baby face.

R. Hallam 'Magnet' (Sheffield Wedge, iro 1850, my favourite razor, so smooth!)
Erasmic (Tallow based stick, they do do a glycerine based one as well, I just prefer the lather from tallow based soaps)
Alum Block & Cold Water
Wilkinsons Hydro



WTG followed by ATG
Soap dried out a little, will use in a bowl next time rather than face lathering, otherwise a comfortable shave.
Results: Ok, neither my best nor worst shave!

Apologies for the poor photo...
