Hot shower prep
Soap: P-160
Mug: Japanese resrvoir base three piece
Brush: Ever-Ready Lucite, Boar
Hone: Japanese Nakayama
Razor: Kokuro 6/8ths frameback
Aftershock: none needed
Splash: none

Today: Sunny and bright -16ºC. The Shave. smoooth and close in two. Another Japanese frameback. I followed my usual practice of putting purchase cost ahead of my labor time. I spent about 4 hours on the rough razor including honing to “very nice!”
She certainly repaid my efforts!
The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!
