Five shavings with the same blade - even an Iridium Super - are one too much. To me at least.

There were places in my face, where I more felt it as the blade pulled out the stubbles than cutted them.

But I succeeded. Probably because I - like others here on B&B - found some good music for my shave.

My choise was: "Coleman Hawkins encounters Ben Webster" - an album, I have had for 35-40 years.

The shave - by the way - was very much a T&H-shave:

Proraso pre-shave Cream
Truefitt & Hill Luxury Shaving Soap

Proshave-scuttle (Danish special)
Truefitt & Hill Super Badger brush
Truefitt & Hill Wellington DE-razor
Iridium Super (5)

Thayer's Unscentet Witch Hazel
Truefitt & Hill 1805 Aftershave Balm

Have a nice day, gentlemen...

Nice looking hardware/software! I just ordered a sampler pack from T&H and currently use on of their badger brushes. Does Merkur make that razor for them?

I'm sorry, but I have to admit that I don't know who is making their razors, but I like mine as much as I like my Merkur 38C. The T&H might even be a little less aggressive.

Yes! I like seeing what everyone's using. Henry's pics are phenomenal, I agree, but really I like seeing what everyone is using. Cell phone pics are great too. I often use my iPhone.
