    Razor: Hand Made by me, Astra blade double stacked| Brush: Finest Badger Hand Made by me | Soap: Palmolive stick (Rum inspired my use of this today) | AS: Alum, Nivea Q10 lotion, Nivea Balm Q10

    Double stacking the blades has really smoothed out this razor, I'm sure it's changed the angle of the blade, gave it some rigidity and reduced the blade gap, not sure if it's the sum of all three or just one particular thing. But it works and works well!

    TUESDAY
    Hot shower prep
    Soap: Stroker’s Find
    Mug: Coffee Mug and soup bowl for lathering
    Brush: Generic black badger
    Razor: Morley Clover Brand 9/16ths “Rattler” ca. 1920
    Aftershock: none
    Splash: NOS Old Spice Musk
    Today, Dawned bright and cold, no snow on the ground to stay...yet! Last night was first honing for this blade. First time finishing on a Zulu! After I got the shave angle right, I received a close and comfortable shave in two passes. Since the blade was all but new, I did one layer of tape all through the progression. More blades this week on the “Zulu Grey;” no real opinions yet.

    The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!

    Prep: Hot shower

    Razor: Joseph Rodgers and sons
    Soap: Tabac
    AS: Dr Harris Sandalwood
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Uberclean

    This "hollow" razor aren't hollow, more like a 1/2 hollow stiff Sheffield blade, if I ever saw one - but it's a very nice shaver, even though the "hollow" part doesn't hold true


    Bill: Fantastic photo, well done!

    My wife gave this to me last night as a gag gift... so naturally it's a SOTD.

    A nice shave. Nothing fancy, just a quality blade with some good other ingredients.

    Thanks for the birthday wishes. Hard to believe I am 38 now.
