Mr. Mod, thanks for putting my post in the new SOTD thread! I always forget about the new week...

My face is still feeling a little iffy from yesterday's on-the-road shave so I decided to play it safe.

7/8 Friodur
Simpson Rover pure badger
Arko shave stick
Alum
Musgo Real A/S splash
C&E Sienna ASB

I've had the Arko for ages and decided to give it a go with a straight - not bad at all. Great for a quick shave - so long as you don't mind the fairly industrial smell of the Arko - amazing when you consider that this stuff is cheap as dirt.
