Great photos guys, cheers! :thumbup1:
 
Thanks Mel.. now to learn the darn thing LOL

Just learn as you shoot and edit! I have my manual for mine, but I just cannot get through all of that technical jargon! I have some of the basics down, but I go through what looks good for me and, thank goodness for the simple editing feature I have on my computer. Personally, I think it just might be more valuable than my camera! :blush:

George Wostenholm & Sons Pipe Razor, 5/8 Half Hollow, Square Point

As a collector and historian of pogonotomy, I love shaving with old straight razors and I like to revive important pages of history, adding art to the pleasure of shaving. Wostenholm certainly is one of the most important straight razor makers of the past, with a glorious history to tell, its razors are still capable of giving a superb shave no matter of a long time has padded by. Just perfect and agile, this bow razor is still doing an excellent job.​


  • Pre-Shave: Myrsol Emulsión
  • Soap: DR K Peppermint Shaving Soap
  • Brush: Plisson Badger
  • Bowl: Old Barber Bowl
  • Strop: Mastro Livi Loom Strop and Hand Palm
  • Razor: George Wostenholm & Sons Pipe Razor, 5/8 Half Hollow, Square Point
  • Post-Shave: Argan Oil
  • After Shave: Myrsol Agua de Limón
 
To paraphrase "The Treasure of Sierra Madre".



Shave stick? I don't have no shave stick, I don't need no shave stick, I don't have to show you any stinking shave stick!







LOL. Sorry, couldn't resist. Love the photos, guys!
