There are two pics for today. I had to try my hand at my straight to see if it had been honed or not. It is my second attempt at a straight. I did the same thing five years ago. I shaved both cheeks with the straight . My hand was shaking. Both of them were. I had to shave my left cheek with my left hand. No cuts though. I had to finish up with my double edge razor. There is no comfort strip or flexball on these things.

Kamisori Honke Nobu, 5/8

Shaving with a kamisori is always fascinating. Not only for the fact this type of razor gives a deep and close shave, but also for the fact it represents an ancient and distant culture, a different way of thinking about shaving and razor. A simple look with a classic handle, this Honke Nobu is just perfect.​
