Great shave set-up and photo, and I have to say I'm in love with your Doug Smith Shaving Mug! Absolutely gorgeous!

Thanks for nice words!
From an ebay find, although when I examined closely, this one had a 1 mm nick in the edge near the toe.
Doc226 expertly amputated and honed the blade.
To be honest, I had some difficulty in getting used to lateral angle with this particular shorty, resulting in a nasty gash one time.
You only make that mistake once, however!

Got a couple of SOTD's from last week to post, and get caught up, so here's the first...

The day after Christmas SOTD:

A very smooth, close shave today, love the Zi' Peppino scent!

Thanks. Doug makes some very solid pieces. This mug is probably the thickest hand turned bowl or scuttle, very well made piece and highly recommend his work.
