    Fantastic razor and even the new kid on the setup, the SE razor Star, was really good (I kind of trashed my favorite head shaver before, a GEM Junior, but this one I can see works well as a replacement).

    Strop: MickR's roo Hide
    Soap: Proraso
    Brush: Frank's Shaving Fine Badger
    Razor: 5/8 Bengall
    Astringent: Thayer's Original Witch Hazel
    Balm: C.O. Bigelow Mentha
    A/S: Proraso
    Tonight was the first test shave of this Bengall which I just restored last week.
    Man, the shave was amazing. The edge was honed on the Norton 4/8, followed by the Naniwa 12k.
    The Bengall effortlessly wiped away several days of beard growth, leaving me BBS in 2 passes.
    hope you all get shaves this good.

    Razor – Osborne & Sons
    Brush – Semouge boar
    Soap – Mike’s Natural Soap’s- Hungarian lavender
    AST – ALUM
    AS – Penhaligons BB

    This day a smiling wedge was called into action. I consider this Sheffield steel to be a wonderfully designed razor. The curvature of the edge allows for a smooth comfortable shave. Have a great week gentlemen.
