    So last night I honed it and today it started begging for me to take some pictures.

    My photography does not do it justice.

    Razor doesnt look too much to the world but it tangoed well with the charnley forrest hone and picked up an excellent edge which made it an excellent shaver

    Sunday Shave,
    Warm Shower, Warm Oil
    Dirty Bird Scuttle
    Badger Brush by Bill (PixelFixed)
    AOS Lavender Shave Cream, little glycerine
    Bob Allman Split tail Custom, 8/8 Full hollow in Translucent Buffalo Horn http://straightrazorpalace.com/custo...-horn-ocd.html
    Strop, 100 laps
    Razorock Aluminum
    Pinaud Clubman
    Vaseline for me.

    I had a three-4 day growth today as a test for the new OCD razor. Lathered up with the badger and AOS Lavender shave cream. The photo was taken after the two passes. Tons of lather still available on the brush and inside the scuttle.
    Stropped it up real quick and went to work on the very long whiskers. Two passes and I was BBS, a few hot towels and Razorock and my shave was done. Bob gives new meaning to "FULL HOLLOW" when he grinds a razor.

    Razor: PJM C-Mon Blackie
    Soap/Cream: Institut Karite + Pre de Provence
    Brush: Thater
    Aftershave: Floid Blue

    I've been loving your guys' SOTDs for a long time now, and figured it was finally time to add one of my own. This was a pretty spectacular shave and a pure joy. I guess it was just a shea butter kind of day I'll try to contribute once a week and hopefully, my photography will get better. Have a great week, guys!
