Hart 6/8 Razor

After some frustration, I got the Hart back in line. It shaved great. Everything else performed well too.Last edited by Mephisto; 06-24-2013 at 11:43 PM. Reason: monkey poo

Monday evening
Same razor different day
Hot water prep
Bartmann No 86 razor - L'Occitane CADE sc - Barbershop badger brush - cold water splash - Truefitt & Hill 1805 asb - shower - Penhaligon's Eau de Verveine EdT
Tweaked the edge today to my liking. Started with a slurry coticule, diluted and finally only water. Then on to the slurry Thuringian stone, diluted and finished with water. About 40 laps on red, another 40 or so on bare leather and time to test my abilities. A shave for the books. The edge is fantastic. I had high hopes for this razor and am pleased to say that it lives up to its expectations. A shaver just as fine as my Fillies, my 14's and even my Belgian cleaver. This one is bound to stay with me for quite a while.

I'll probably never be a died in the wool night shaver but I have to admit it was pretty enjoyable so I'll probably toy with it for a bit. Tunes: Night Ranger- Sister Christian (night shave bonus). This electric must be solar powered, I've had it for years and never once plugged it in or charged it. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen an On switch.The older I get, the better I was

Thanked: 146Proraso|G5|Mtn.Badger|Proraso|Kropp|ProrasoAS|Iggy 's Balm
I live in an old farm house that was built in 1860, no A/C, so the cold water filled scuttle after a nice warm shower is refreshing. The Kropp is fresh off of a touch up on the 12k Naniwa and it is superb yet again. The nice round point and slight smile make this razor very forgiving. Smooth and fresh in 3!
