Brush: TGN Silvertip in custom in African Walnut

Soap: Überlather - Mama Bear's Hinoki Wood, TOBS Lemon & Lime, glycerine

This was a special one for me, so I held on to a good three-day beard. My first shave with my first self-restored and self-honed razor (being the first serious honing attempt). Not 100% baby-butt smooth, but darn close in three passes. Also my first run with a silvertip brush, for which:

Thank you, Zephyr!


The best shave in a very long time, for many reasons, one of which is English Steel, another northern folly (of so wilfully parting with such an AWESOME brush)!

The weather is definately Portuguese here in Finland, so I say it counts, gents, enjoy a great summer day!
