This is the time of year when i seem to have the most trouble with getting the lather right. Too thick or too thin but seldom correct!:banghead:
The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!

Prep: Hot Shower
Razor: 6/8 Dubl Duck
Strop: Illinios 827
Cream: Spencer & Devon Sagebrush
Brush: AOS Fine Badger
A/S: Pinaud
Result: This is the only razor of my seven that I did not hone. I purchased it recently from vintagebladesllc.com. The vendor represents it was honed by Lynn, so, as expected, the edge was and remains perfect. Excellent shave, now back to work. Have a wonderful day.
