Thanked: 109
Prep: 5k run, Hot Shower
Razor: 5/8 Wosty Pipe
Cream: T&H Trafalgar
Brush: AOS Fine Badger
A/S: Pinaud Clubman
Result: I was about half way through the shave when I realized I forgot to strop the razor. I could not tell if it made a difference, although that first stroke did seem to have a hint or harshness. Oh well, I still got a great shave. The brush was a gift from my wife over a year ago, and the razor was a gift from my son last father's day. Both always perform well.
Good Tuesday to you all!

Tuesday evening
Hot water prep
Iwasaki Kamisori - silvertip badger brush - Acca Kappa 1869 sc, asb and AdC
The Zen shave. Kids in bed. The house silent. No music. Just me, the razor and the forces of nature guiding my hand. A very clean shave. The AK1869 is a very Zen scent in its own right. Pure bliss.
