Btw scales look very similar to Hart Steel razor, if I'm not wrong you also have one

Prep: Hot shower
Brush: New Forest, 2201 extra stuffed
Razor: Feather RG with pro blade
Soap: Cassis Tea Tree + Lavender
AS: Ogallala, L&P
Strops: None
Result: Uberclean
Result! If I where a pro shaver I would like to have one of these ... One tiny thing though, besides the soul and heart part, it feels like it's a little toe heavy, so I've to compensate slightly for that, when shaving.


.. and my coffee for cappu:

Ha ha. I rescaled it in a copy of my Hart Steel's scales that I made from black walnut, modified the stabilizer, and honed it up. I wouldn't say it shaves as well as the Hart, but close.

Wow, great work!
As for me scales looks absolutely identical, and if you make it shave ready and close to Hart razor I take my hat off (or how it's right to say))
Than it's very good investment in GD razor

Thanks, you're too kind.

I should point out, in case any newbies are watching, that my GD is not as good as my Hart Steel and that I have a fair amount of time invested in making it nice. Also, I got lucky in getting a pretty good one. Have fun working on them, but please don't buy one as your first razor.

Today Creme Brulee day, im in the mood for this smell today.
For me its weekend now i have just a cleaningup shower from work behind me,and now its time to shave my 3 days old beard. I don't like it not to shave so many days but somtimes there is no other way.

As said prep was a shower
Soap. MB creme brulee.
Razor Hamburg ring
FS silvertip brush.
And i think i dont use afthershave this day.

Another day, another gratuitous shot of the Maxtom... my apologies

Super late night shave here, away from home all day with nothing but a good shave in mind so couldn't wait till the morning.

Prep: Looong Shower
Pre: Proraso
Strop: SRD Premium I
Razor: 9/8+ Max Sprecher custom
Brush: Thäter SRP LE (Fan)
Soap: Tabac Original
Scuttle: Dirty Bird
AST: Thayer's

Not much more to say other than 'WOW' - A brilliant shave from the Maxtom - If only I could grow a beard over night so I can repeat the process come morning...

Have a fantastic day gentlemen, keep those shots rolling in!
