Prep: Hot shower, Musgo Real Glyce Lime Oil Soap
Strop: 2" Dovo Russian
Brush: Muhle badger
Soap/Cream: Art Of Shaving (Lemon)
Aftershave: Clubman



Note: This was probably one of the best shavers I've had the privledge to try, EVER.
Talk about a whisker slayer! I love it for so many reasons.
First- It's a Greaves like my buddy Tom just said if a W.&B. is a Cadillac, Greave's are a Rolls Royce, and he aint lying.
Secondly- What a joy to shave with, cut like a demon.
Thirdly- What a head turner, this razor is a sight to behold & to just feel it, weighted perfectly.

Ok there all the plus's , now heres the big minus. "ITS NOT MINE" Its a test drive. Heres my I Love Lucy cry right now Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!
Oh well no use crying over spilled whisker residue. Right?

You all have a very spectacular coming week gentlemen.

The GD needed a little TLC this morning. Instead of using my usual diamond strop...I pulled out the Fine Welsh Slate hone. 30 laps on that...followed by 50 on Latigo and 40 on Engilsh Bridle gave a very nice edge indeed. I had a very smooth and very very clean shave.
