My pride and joy, the W&b "The Celebrated Extra Hollow". It's such a fine specimen. Always performs, never disappoints. Another gorgeous summer day ending with a super-duper bbs shave. Gotta love those moments when everything just falls in place.
Enjoy the new week.

Razor: Lewis 6/8 one-piece, symmetrical grind
Soap: Palmolive
Brush: Vie Long Silvertip, 24mm
A/S: L'Oréal
I won this razor in the Charlie Lewis competition. The short edge makes is very easy to use in any direction with either hand and the steel 'rope' around the handle is totally non-slip. The box is also in Charlie's trademark 'rustic' style but it's precision cut inside to ensure the blade edge can't touch the wood (there's detail for ya!). And the razor's v-e-r-y sharp, BBS all the way!

Nice cool Sunday morning and hot Blonde Roast coffee at my favorite Starbucks. I'm sure not like Mikael's coffee, but good enough for me. Reading the SOTD in the quiet store. Fabulous shaves to start the day.
Enjoy the rest of the day.
