Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Razor: 7/8" Henckels Friodur #17 Stainless Steel INOX, Full Hollow, Spike Point
Brush: 22mm New Forest Silvertip
Überlather: Floris "JF" Shave Creme + Floris "JF" Shave Soap + Glycerin
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
Cologne: Alt Innsbruck EdC
Results: It had been awhile since I had used this wonderful blade. A few minutes on the Escher last night and she was ready to perform. And perform, she did. With the cushion provided by the Floris SS/SC combo, this blade had a field day with the second set of stubble in 2011. Touch down...BBS all over

. And to seal the deal, a little Alt Innsbruck/Trumper mix was used to finish this beautiful shave.

I know, I know. I am still in Christmas mode

(as evident from my picture). Decorations are still up and won't come down until after the 6th, which is when we Armenians celebrate Christmas. Historically, all Christian churches celebrated Christ's birth on January 6th until the fourth century. The date was changed from January 6th to December 25th in order to override a pagan feast dedicated to the birth of the Sun which was celebrated on December 25th.

Have a FABULOUS Sunday guys

Thought it'd be a neat way to begin the new year with a week's worth of shaves using only the soaps, creams, aftershaves & colognes I'm able to obtain locally! Haven't used Williams in a while and I was impressed at the great shave I got from it! Definitely not the best soap in the world but it's adequate.

Great pics gentlemen! :thumbup1:

First shave of 2011


Aura Glow Oil and Hot Towel Prep
Proraso Sapone Da Barba
New Forest 2211 Finest Silvertip
Krusius Bros. KB Extra 67
SRD P1 Strop .. 70 Linen/80 Leather
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Nivea AS Balm
Proraso Dopobarba

My wife's Dickens Village, "A Christmas Carol Revisited," will be coming down this week, and since it's so much work to set up and take down every year, I decided to milk the backdrop for one last photo..

The KB will be set aside now in favor of another deserving edge, but it and the Proraso products teamed up for an unbeatable shave!
