Sweet -- I did not know of this week's theme but instinctively used my favorite razor anyway:

- face prep: shower w/ Mehmet Aydin soap from Turkey, (real) hot towel
- Palmolive cream w/ hjm badger
- Merkur HD (34c) w/ Derby w/x/a + clean-up
- Geo F. Trumper after shave Spanish Leather (this fine scent premiered with me today).

DFS, but hey -- what could go wrong with this setup? ;)

A perfect two pass shave. I hadn't touched the Manaslu in what seemed like forever. There wasn't much left after the incredible job done yesterday, but what little there was is gone now! As I slowly pull myself back together after Monday, I'm ready to tackle some work today!
