...And a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Marco and his family
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: 23mm Shavemac Silvertip Badger Maxterpiece: 6/8" Wyeth "Trade Mark Warranted", 1/2 hollow (stiff) ground, Round Point (w/ Bone Linen Micarta scales + Black Paper Micarta wedge) Honing (Refresh): 5 laps on CrOx leather Strop: 5/45/70 laps (Torolf Linen / SRD Premium IV English Bridle leather / Ambrose Horsehide Clàsico leather) Soapreme: RazoRock "Ltd. Ed." Shave Creme + Mama Bear's "Almond" Shave Soap + Glycerin Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol) After Shave Splash: Proraso AS Cologne: Acca Kappa "1869" EdT After Shave Balm: eShave "Almond" ASB Results: Both wife and I have been sporting a cold for a few days now , but it seems like it's the tail end of the viral life cycle. This was written on the walls; running hard for a few months and being bombarded and exposed to "sick" people will test anyone's immune system. THE BAD: we have quarantined ourselves and will not be seeing family this week. THE GOOD: This shave was fabulously refreshing:nj. Despite a stiffer grind, this Wyeth is a terrific performer and she can certainly hold a fantastic edge:y. Loved the über I made with RR & MB combo . Smoooth and BBS and ready for the Oscar's tonight (Go Billy).
:: shower with Duru soap
:: long application of a real hot towel
:: Arko soap, balea badger
:: Merkur 34c (HD) w/ Voskhod blade @8
:: Aqua Velva Ice Blue
Nothing big; but every single item most reasonably priced and nothing less than awesome!
At its eighth turn, the blade is still running smoothly and cuts like a dream.
Y'all have a good one!
