Sadly, I must admit to having spent a few minutes debating whether to call it hardware or software. Utlimately, I prefer to think of women as being the "softer" sex... But either way can work!

5/8" W.H. Morely & Sons Clover Brand
C&E Nomad Shave Cream & ASB on my Whippeddog Silvertip
Not a bad shave today. I'm definitely getting better at stropping and my shaves are much more confident with the straight. I did give myself a good cut on my upper lip. It was weird, it was my last stroke to clean up my upper lip and the razor just bit me. I suppose I applied pressure. Oh well other than a few battle scars it was my best shave yet with my Clover.

Out of all the razors i own the Fon Golden Star would have to be my favourite, not only as a shaver, but the quality and finish are without equal, i always love looking at this razor no matter how many times i see it.

Fantastic shave and the first one at home in several weeks, it's nice to shave in the country side, but there's no place like your home zink place :D Our little fur/odd ball came back, after three nights in the wild (she has only been away one night before and only once) and she's now a very pleased cat :D :D
