Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 26mm Rudy Vey TGN Grade A Silvertip Badger w/ Kingwood handle
Razor: 15/16" Filarmonica "Doble Temple" #14, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point
Honing (Refresh) regimen: 5 (light) laps on CrOx treated Premium IV Bridle leather
Strop: 0/60 laps (Tony Miller Heilroom Horse hide linen/leather)
Soapreme: Martin de Candre Shave Soap + Glycerin

Results: Spectacular shave with the Filarmonica and the MdC lineup. I also got my lovely TM strop yesterday (has quite the draw). It gave the Fili quite a nice finish after the CrOx run. I cannot think of a better way to spend my "Me" time in the man cave. But time does fly when you're having fun. I felt cheated somewhat - this exercise was over before it began. Nevertheless, I am sporting a smooth and zero irritation face
I miss being fully engaged with you guys, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel (soon, real soon). Have an AMAZING Wednesday gentlemen
