Kikuboshi Special | Semogue 2010 LE #66 | Nanny's The Spicey One | Thayers Rose | Cade ASB | Xjeroff Modoc

First shave with the new formulation Nanny's Soap, courtesy of Mikael, and it worked quite well. It seemed to like a lot of water, and wasn't the most cushioned SC I've used, but it was super slick and left my skin smooth and moist. I'd say it's a keeper! Of course, the Japanese steel never disappoints, and this Kikuboshi is worth it's weight in gold. Two passes and I'm BBS!

Mama Bear Wild Mint & Ivy - Semogue 830 - Dovo 25 - Dr. Harris Arlington

The Dovo arrived too late for yesterdays shave, so it was put into action today. Jarrod from The Superior Shave put a nice edge on it and it gave a nice shave. I will have to watch out for the spike point on this one though, as it's much more of a spike point than my other two straight razor (which are spike points too). The other two points have been rounded a bit.
