He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.

Shave prep Evening shave, just a hot splash of water on my face
Brush: D.R. Harris
Preshave: Proraso Pre
Soap: Martin De Candre
Scuttle: Simple soup bowl
Razor: Revisor 6/8 - Seaman
Strop: Kanayama 20 canvas strokes and 60+ strokes on the leather
After Shave Splash: Nivea aftershave Balm
Notes:
Sometimes uncertain if I do a ‘time-doesn’t-matter’-evening shave or just a regular morning shave. A quick morning routine would be 45minutes from walking into the bathroom, shower, shave, dress, clean the blade, (also zen time) until putting my shoes on and go for breakfast. B.t.w. this didn’t include stropping.
Evening shaves can take more time but lack the advantage of the shower heat. But when done properly and not having to mind too much about anything since this is shaving time, the results can be perfect. The not minding part is my favorite anyway!
Ridiculously smooth result.
