BTW, thank you for including a thumbnail of you pic and not the full view. That makes it much quicker for the page to load.

Really? Who views porn with thumbnails? And these pics are, after all, porn for us degenerates.

Went to choose a razor, the Carre just leapt into my hand. I'm still using only my diamond pasted balsa progression to finish the factory edge. It is plenty sharp, but I'm still hoping for greater comfort. Perhaps for each shave I should give it more than 25 laps on the leather.

Dovo 6 Carre
Tony Miller 3" Horsehide (cosmetic second - my beginner strop and still my favorite)
Prepped with mentholated Col Conk Lime
Lathered with @SliceOfLife Williams tribute. This is an excellent soap, with a great scent.
Reine Borste brush
Alum and Richard's Rub afterwards

Thursday 28th

Cream - Simpsons
Brush - Simpsons
Razor - John Rawson 6/8 near wedge
Balm - T&H 1805

A good shave with the 6/8, cutting through the stubble easier than the 5/8.. That's my first 7 days of straight razor shaving done.

Great soap, brush, and razor makes for a great shave. A great splash makes for the perfect finish. Simply lovely!

And I've finally figured out how to describe my WK experience. I get great performance from Arko, Tabac, and Da Fat, as I do with WK. But WK brings an extra umph that I can only call luxury. IMHO, my WK lather is not "better" than the others, but it is much more luxurious.

Been a long while so I touched it up to be sure. Wonderful shave.
