No shave today, just some Hutan Kalimatan to smell good and off too early to work...
Carl: Quit using HarryGR's picture as an excuse. We all know you just wanted to put on your wife's red heels again...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.

I gave the Bengall a little touch-up last night, but it's still not quite there.

Soap: MWF 'Da Fat'
Razor: Burrell 'Top Flight'
Post: Hot Water rinse/ Cold water splash

Thanked: 3227Prep - None
Strop - 3 inch bridle leather/hard felt
Razor - No name 5/8 shoulderless with French point (American Hardware store variety?)
Brush = Semogue 1350 Boar
Soap - Tabac puck
Post - Alum block followed with Thayers witch hazel
Just a super cold water face lathered shave. That delicate unassuming little razor gives an out of this world shave. The great lather supplied by the Tabac and 1350 Boar brush didn't hurt any either. Wish all my shaves were this good. Have a good one too.
