Friday morning,

Merkur 15C Open-Comb,
Israeli Personna Crystal Blade (2)
Rooney 1/1 Best Badger Brush,
Arko shave soap w/ hot water lather,
Cold water rinse, finish w/ Thayers
Original Witch Hazel. DFS!
 
Friday:

EJ89L
Lord Platinum (6)
Thater 4125/2
SCS Orange Sorbet stick
Nivea Sensitive balm
Aqua Velva Classic Blue
Burberry edt

This soap is just useless to me, lather fades and is not slick. When it comes to artisan soaps I'm sticking with Queen Charlotte.

Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 24mm Morris & Forndran, 2-band Silvertip Badger (Bone Handle)
Razor: 13/16" Toyo "Special Razor" Frameback, Swedish "Asaab" Steel, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point
Honing Regimen: Naniwa 1k, Shapton Pro 1k/2k/5k/12k, Y/G Escher
Strop: 40/60 laps (Neil Miller linen / SRD Premium IV leather)
Überlather: La Toja "Manantiales" Shave Soap
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
After Shave Splash: La Toja "Manantiales" AS
Cologne: La Toja "Manantiales" EdC
Results: I recently score this beautiful NOS Toyo from eBay and I am in love :001_wub:. Although she's advertized as a full hollow, I think based on her singing that she is an extra hollow. She took an incredible edge using the honing regimen outlined above. Smooth as butter
