Always impressed with the clean smooth shaves from my two vintage Bokers and this was no exception. Nice combo for an uber lather too, lots of glide. Great start to the day, hope you have one too.

Thursday:

Sprock 6/8 round, stropped 20/60
Arko cream, Conk badger
Brut cologne



Three passes. Satisfying harvest of two days' growth, near bbs.

The Sprock sings like a cymbal on the strop and plinks like a music box tine when it pops a hanging hair. (Actually the sound is faintly reminiscent of clicking the lid open on an old Zippo lighter.) Unfortunately, the extra hollows aren't quite as good with my beard.

Have a terrific shave and an even better day!
