Tonight's shave

Razor - 6/8" Tanifuji BaBa

Strop - Tony Miller 3" Steerdovan

Brush - Brush made by @Hyloworks

Bowl - Captain's Choice Lather Bowl

Soap - Crowne & Crane Tobacco Leaf & Amber. I got this soap from a PIF on another forum. Since I cant see my nephew for a bit I had to try the soap since I love tobacco scented grooming products. Now I'm hoping my nephew doesn't like it so I can keep it.

Aftershave - Whiskey Woods. I have the tobacco leaf and amber balm but I was thinking whiskey woods would compliment this soap really well and it did. Whiskey woods is cheaper than the balm.

Razor Edwin Jagger DE89
Blade S Max Super Stainless 1st
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers Cucumber + Gatsby Splash
Excellent soap, thick slick lather results with excellent scent lasting 1 hour after the shave. Love the scent!
Shave with the ever reliable razor pair with 1st time use blade brand. Initial stroke feel & feedback was abit rough but as more stroke progress the blade feel was ok and turns smooth as the shave went on. Nice blade. 3pass was enough. WTG, XTG & ATG. Went more diagonal on the neck atg pass. No weepers today. Shave result was a good smooth BBS. Ice water rinse followed special Thayers. Some red irritation on the neck from aftershave splash. 9/10 rating
