Razor J.R. Torrey 5/8
Nice easy shave with this razor. Still unable to get more efficiency under the neck...ah well...just enjoyed it nonetheless.

Very nice scent from this cream. The lather was good too...
This razor has a fresh Naniwa 12k Edge and it was nice...enough. 3 smooth & comfortable enough passes for a

Razor J.R. Torrey 5/8
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel MitA + TGS Sea Citrus Splash with some Frost Drops.
Nice soap for the scent plus creamy and slick easy to lather qualities...
The shave with this razor was really enjoyable and better after going thru the full pasted balsa progression. Smooth, comfortable, and more efficient compared to last use. Managed a dfs/ccs result without any issues after 2.5passes. Enjoy the aftershaves.

Razor J.R.Torrey 5/8
An enjoyable and good shave with this razor. The edge was crisp, smooth, and very comfortable after stropping on the balsa and buffalo leather. 3passes for a good dfs+/ccs result but 2 red spots from user mistake.

Today's workday shaves with this razor after putting it through the 3 re-lapped & refreshed pasted balsa strops was just ok. Although the edge was keen, smooth & comfortable enough, managed 2.5passes for a mostly ccs result with some red spots.

Tuesday, I'm here!
The culprit! Got a little nick right next to my mustache.
Confession: I'm the culprit, shaving while distracted, in the first degree.

A truly magnificent shave from the Torrey today. It's funny how I ignore this razor for months upon months, but as soon as I pick it up it performs so incredibly well.

My first (and only) Torrey. I suspect it will not be alone forever 
Normally Tuesday is a busy day - if I shave at all it is in the afternoon with time for only 1-pass. But I had to lead a Sales Training session today so started off with a full 3-pass from this Torrey “the Celebrated”. Lovely shave and the meeting went well. I even turned my camera on!

Today's shave with this razor was very nice and enjoyable. The edge refreshed on pasted balsa and kanayama strop feels super smooth & keen. Did the kanayama improve the smoothness...mmm? Very interesting...2.5passes for a dfs/ccs result and 2 micro red spots.

Busy day yesterday - I did use a Torrey for a quick 1-pass, but a bit delayed in posting it.
This was my 6/8 round point with one of the first sets of scales that I made myself. Acrylic is a great material to start with - it comes in exactly 1/8” thick pieces, and is relatively inexpensive.
Arko is somewhat drying for me, but it is great stick soap if you don’t want to spend 5 minutes building a lather.
