    Not new knowledge really but after a couple days of safety razor shaving I can safely say that there's nothing like a good straight razor shave.

    Prep - Basin of hot water + shave towel
    Pre-Shave - Musgo Real Glyce
    Brush - Vulfix bristle
    Soap - Arko
    Mug - Rogers & Bro
    Razor - "Bernie" 11/16 stubby
    Post - Thayers + Nivea balm

    Thanks for the kind words fellas I am almost certain this razor has had some edge taken out, but it was done properly and it still shaves very well. I only do 3 pass shaves, and only 3 or 4 times a week, and this razor is one of my best as far as retaining the smoothness till the very end.

    Good looking brush, love the handle shape. Not a bad choice in a razor either.
