Grant,
Thank you for sharing the picture of Jacky. I feel like he's become the official adopted son of the SOTD thread. It's such wonderful news to hear how well he is doing!He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
-- Samuel Taylor Coleridge

How do you make a good shave a great shave? Simple, news that Jack is doing well and being a "handful" as he should be. Grant, thanks for keeping us posted on his progress. You made my day.
Quick shower and shave.

Nice shave.

Prep: Hot Shower
Brush: SRP Thäter
Razor: SSA 7/8 wedge
Stropping: 60/60 Neil Miller Linen/ Legion kangaroo
Soap: Martin de Candre
Aftershave: TOBS Mr.Taylors
Result: Finally came around to hone this razor on Thursday, used Shapton Pro's finishing on 12/15K, apparently the Shapton wasn't the right finisher for this razor 'cause the first shave was a bit under par and caused some burn. So today I gave her a new finish on a vintage Thuri, ooh yeah, that was the right finisher for her, the shave was smooth as silk CBS in two passes. And what could be more approriate as background for a swedish chopper than a pile of fire wood
