A morning with the now defunct Cold River Soap Works soap and splash (my favorite made soaps there are not MWF or Tabac). Wonderful scents that are unique and elevate the shave. Third use of the Henson and it is even better as I dial it in. It easily goes over thick stubble in one pass with no need for touch up. The result is a DFS which I don’t usually get with a DE. I'm tempted to buy another one in a different color. Aces!
