Strop - Jemico
Prep - Hot water + shave towel
Pre-Shave - Musgo Real Glyce
Brush - Dad's old brush
Soap - Arko
Mug - Rogers & Bro
Razor - 11/16 stainless microtome

Second shave with the microtome. It shaves good and doesn't irritate my skin, but the working angle on this shaver is not something for the timid
